The morning of the flood
It was the morning linda died
While i was busy cutting diamonds
With the corners of my life
We drew a full house on the river
It was erased before our eyes
We know although things last forever
They must change their shape sometimes
I am safe & i am sorry
In the evergreens at night
& i am looking through your window
I am staring at your mind
When linda dies and linda dies and linda dies
It seems to me forever
I've been waiting in this tree
& so i go now by goliath
I'm my favorite enemy
We are careless with our wishing
With the truths we tell through teeth
You be careful what you pay for
When the soul is your receipt
They are boarding up the phone
They are boarding up their eyes
You will board open your hands
I will board the kites of time
Deliver me tomorrow
Care of sleep, my moving boat
But it can take me only so far
Only so far yet to go
When linda dies and linda dies and linda dies
We have cut through most of georgia
Not 200 miles to go
We are all buried in the jordan
Turns our spirits white like snow
There is a door within its palm
It will not hit us where we go
