Sister Sleep Lyrics

Girl, being close hurts

So I've called from the outskirts

With road noise at a phone booth

So we won't hear the whole truth

Bought this house, on a low bid

Where they moved out, like we did

When the needs of the renter

Pulled us far from the center

Last few holidays I was only thinking

How to get away, numb the chat with drinking

Still thinking like a son, saying something clever

They're here to push against, they won't be forever

A garment, heft me around

At arm's length, lay me out

On your chest, tuck your chin and wonder

Was it rude to sneeze? The allergist is leaving

First we do no harm, like expensive breathing

Am I saying what I'd be able to hear

Or what goes on the list ringing in the new year?

Ninety people walk

Down Haight Street, fill the block

And my job, keep my spacing even

See all ninety people

Be the even spacing

The comet brothers' friends arrive cow-eyed

Our car was dead, we ran, I swear we tried

Will sister sleep not kiss us on the mouth?

It's all we ever want from her

Hitler's icon leads the flight through space

Turns and finds it's own bent lines to chase

Will sister sleep not kiss us on the mouth?

It's all we ever want from her

There's no way to a quasar

They're flung out from us too far

Just by chance, maybe not more

We can touch what we live for
