joanna newsom - a pin-light bent lyrics

Loading...

my life comes and goes.
my life comes and goes.
short flight, free rows:
i lie down and doze.

my life came and went.
my life came and went.
short flight; free descent.
poor flight attendant.

but the sky, over the ocean!
and the ocean, skirting the city!
and the city, bright as a garden
(when the garden woke to meet me),
from that height was a honeycomb
made of light from those funny homes, intersected:
each enclosed, anelectric and alone.

in our lives is a common sense
that relies on the common fence
that divides, and attends,
but provides scant defense
from the great light that shine through a pin-hole,
when the pin-light calls itself selfhood,
and the selfhood inverts on a mirror
in an amora obscura.

but it’s mine. or, at least, it’s lent.
and my life, until the time is spent
is a pin-light, bent.
it’s a pin-light, bent.
