gabriel birnbaum – mistakes lyrics
fingers on the presidents the money came the money went
i spent it all on things no one could need
a leather coat a powder drug cabs carried me from club to club
i loved the waste like spitting poison blood
strange
you were with me then
floating down the avenues
hair blown round your neck
while i drank the golden afternoons
but i missed you somehow
you were right there in the shape
of your absence
now i see the past slip into place
there are no other days
just like dad said i went flat broke
at thanksgiving the family joke
i held my tongue and chased what i had known
i saw the way the pieces fit
mistakes i dug my toes between like bricks
to climb how do i know they were mistakes at all
strange
you were with me then
in the recklessness of days
hair blown round your neck
a kind reflection on the windowpane
but i missed you somehow
you were right there in the shape
of your absence
now i see the past slip into place
there are no other days
