So I slip into this slow sliding funk of mine Every time I drink a gla** of wine My engine revs until the enzyme eventually finds its way To the centers of the cells in my mind So I sip without fear of the emptiness That has crawled into the gaps in my heart An unstoppable mystery, the fading of the youthful soul That was once a part of me It was all I had when I had it And all I need when I have it There's a fallen tree in my garden I never heard it I never heard it hit the ground
