Son, Ambulance - Constellations lyrics

Constellations take on meaning dim light of the sun Staring back from the dusty black They know where I'm coming from Seeds of unforgiveness as twisted trees return Tops of buildings, the school steps City shapes unlearned It's highway robbery on your technology Where the road has been mislead You know when Edison's invention Won't light up in my head We grasp the saps of forest thoughts Cementing with our hands We try to give the ground some floor The sky some place to land We stole the dark of the ocean And we named it night Put a switch up to the wall We cut holes in the door Of the future unlocked For you, for you Washed and dried and hung up All your clothes And in one sleeve there was a letter enclosed Said I had formed attachments to these rags The way they draped your form so fluidly Covered all my plans But since you spilled the grape store vines And jilted lies of your finest things And wedding rings were swept out on the porch You won't be playing dress up in my illusions anymore The one I adore Counting hairs on her hair is wearing quite thin It's a lousy game I know That I can't lose My shadow
