Light Weight

White boats on dirty water
The spirit of my overtime
And every drag smells like a butcher’s knife
We caught a taxi back and I walked home from yours
You said, «I'll see you soon,» I said I wasn’t sure
There was everything and nothing everywhere
And I had the idea I deserved even more
And here it comes, if I just wait right here
White coats over the counter
Skinless or without the bone
And everyone smiles like there’s nothing wrong
I left a letter folded in my other clothes
I’d write another but I don’t know what I wrote
Behind the butcher’s, I can sit and watch the boats
The towers told him like I don’t already know
Here it comes, and there it goes
We caught a taxi halfway then walked home from there
You said, «Can I stay with you?», I said I didn’t care
There was everything and nothing everywhere
And I had the idea I deserved to be there
And here it comes, and there it went
