Meredith_Farmer:
And your only hope is that forgetting might make a door appear.
Meredith_Farmer:
Now I know a disease that these doctors can't treat.
Meredith_Farmer:
through a telescope lens it doesn't make sense, you think you've been there before
Meredith_Farmer:
And the angry are animals senseless and savage. They act without order in logical lapses.
Meredith_Farmer:
Left there to drown in their innocence
Meredith_Farmer:
We sat and waited for the sea to stretch out so that we could disappear
Meredith_Farmer:
And in this endless race for property and privilege to be won
Meredith_Farmer:
Another perfect day, they keep piling up
Meredith_Farmer:
We must rip out all the epilogues in the books that we have read
Meredith_Farmer:
you see sorrow gets too heavy and joy it tends to hold you
Meredith_Farmer:
Now everything's imaginary, especially what you love
Meredith_Farmer:
And you don't have to be no one's biography
Meredith_Farmer:
To lay some worth on every word, like coffins dropped into the earth
Meredith_Farmer:
Now the sky is pink. Rooftop swimming pool.
Meredith_Farmer:
And you may case the grounds from the Cascades to Puget Sound
Meredith_Farmer:
So believe you're who you are and just stay in character
Meredith_Farmer:
Each time a faucet opens words are spoken the water runs away
Meredith_Farmer:
As the girls with the pigtails were running from little boys wearing bowties their parent bought them...
Meredith_Farmer:
And when I press the keys, it all gets reversed
Meredith_Farmer:
Their beauty carved out of absolutes that you could never claim, or even envision.
Meredith_Farmer:
Well I guess the best that I can do now is pretend that I’ve done nothing wrong
Meredith_Farmer:
and your only hope is that forgetting might
Meredith_Farmer:
But you try, I know you do, you still talk to your plants
Meredith_Farmer:
I guess I'll just keep moving, someday, maybe, I'll get to where I'm going.
Meredith_Farmer:
i know the cause. and i want to stop.
