biting tongues – the toucanostra lyrics
it was still very early in the morning
and there was snow falling onto the tracks
but even then
there was a crowd of us gathering around the small station
awaiting the arrival of his train
mothers had brought their children
i had brought my camera and a spare roll of film
i had kept since the porter had closed
steam and black smoke, mixed with the falling snow
as the great dark engine pulled into the station
we all rushed to the edge of the platform
eager to catch a glimpse of him
the train was still slowing to a halt
i could see him at the window of his private carriage
waving a gloved hand to the people on the platform
his face was stern and tense
the snow was falling faster now
and we could not see him clearly
but we all felt that day that something grave and marvelous
had p-ssed through our lives
the house is keeping them quiet now
i guess i’ll look around
i’m breathless, i’m breathless
her shadow moves down across the wall
i’m breathless, i’m breathless
there’s gonna be sirens, there’s gonna be sirens
just don’t get me running
why is she shouting at me?
i’m calling down a truck again
this won’t be like last night
my hands feel dirty and i can’t sleep
i’m listening to something
something whispered
whispered like a warning
no watch and no shadow
a subway entrance comes into view
then you describe her
i have described her
i don’t see people that way
i’m not a photographer
it hurts me
it keeps me awake
blood is moving in my body
my nerves are working
all night, all night, all night, all night, all night
