lyrics

“u’ll try again in the morning,
u can’t win the year in a day,
yr story gets lost in the storming,
y trade the pack for a stray?”

i met the man of the morning
as i rolled another nurse for a vial of shine
n tho smeared with the smut i’d been sporing
i cd see thru the crack in my spine

he was clean as a graphic image warning
n as fed as a fire on the summer pine
n wen i askt for the source of his hoarding
he sed, “i have no mind

to carry mortar to the rubble of my grave
so i can drape my eyes with the tongues i mighta saved,”
but 'fore he’d given me more wear’some reveilles
i gave him mine,

“nothin can wait til the mornin,
the tower shall be taken shd we down,
all thru the nite i’ll be warrin
to gain more ground,”

then in his rising my reluctant luv appeared,
lookin fresher than the wasting i so feared,
yet as i braced myself to face her kimantsis
she brought me round

“u’ll try again in the morning,
u can’t win the year in a day,
yr story gets lost in the storming,
y trade the pack for a stray?”

then silent we walkt thru the warming
til i sed wut i nue wuz to say,
“i’ll sleep wen i noe yr a sure thing,”
n she lookt his way.
