We all forgot
To dim the lights and shut off the faucet
When morning comes
The laundry room will be underwater
The setting sun
Looks great because we’re on the moon now
Where everything is safe and calm
And nobody can make it up
And if they could they’d tear our walls down
Offer me all of your jars filled with rain
Offer me all of the words that you’d say
I will be hoarding all of the c*****e (I will be quiet for one hundred days)
I’ll seal it up in mason jars (I’ll wait here silently)
And cover all the gaps between (counting the planes)
The in-between and where you buried (Her rocket ship’s gold and engraved)
Your feelings in a field of dust (There’s no dialectics)
And broke down all the boxes (between man and grave)
I will be hoarding all of the c*****e (The first rule of life is to mean what you say)
I’ll seal it up in mason jars (And to water the plants)
And cover all the gaps between (before you go away)
The in-between and where you buried (Her window gets smaller each day)
Your feelings in a field of dust (From mountaintops everyone)
And broke down all the boxes (looks just the same)
I will be hoarding all of the c*****e (Offer me all of the words that you’d say)
I’ll seal it up in mason jars (Offer me all of your jars filled with rain)
And cover all the gaps between (Offer me all of your jars filled with rain)
The in-between and where you buried (Offer me all of your jars filled with rain)
Your feelings in a field of dust (Offer me all of the words that you’d say)
And broke down all the boxes (Offer me all of the words that you’d say)
