standby (band) – post-mortem daughter track lyrics
in a house by the lake
a daughter recognizes the old shape
my splintered specter spatially resolved
to wait and while away the wistful dregs they’ve handily absolved
of any intimation gifted me my clever carnival
without the patricidal poetry parade across the walls
i would grasp your hand in mine and snap your fragile little bones
don’t listen to a word i say i’ll only break your soul
come reach into the abattoir
you’ll see perennial violence
i’m sorry
in the end
we abandoned
our homes
she and i
at the depths
of the ocean
tears indistinguishable
from the salty water
the narrative
shifts its focus
that shoe in the road
reminded me of his blackened throat
and his battle scars of bullets and pneumonia
lying in the middle of
this empty home
i curse the words i’d say to you and contemplate the things i’d do
if only that d+mned dirty lake hadn’t taken you from me that day
in a house by the lake
i weep the day my father passed away
you were the only one who meant anything to me
anything to you, i mean
(don’t say a single word to me, i’ve said, i won’t, forget, but now, i
know, i let, you go)
