jeffrey foucault – dishes lyrics
[verse 1]
do the dishes
with the windows open
soak the dirt
from under your nails
pour a double
put a record on the table
the light’s always perfect
just before it fails
[verse 2]
bow your head down
when you break bread together
close your eyes
make a circle of hands
there is nothing
that cannot be taken from you
in this life we just hold on
to the love that we have
[verse 3]
swing the axe
in the hour before daylight
note the sparks
that attend to the blade
a thing made free
of itself leaps apart
and the heart divided
would do just the same
[verse 4]
take the back roads
with n0body on them
find a river
make yourself clean
go down to the water
if you would be delivered
of sinner and sin
seen and unseen
[verse 5]
step outside
let the stars reel around you
cup your hands
around a bright flame
in that darkness
let the heavens confound you
it’s all just a story
even the sound of your name
