cab ellis - crumbs of the crumbled world كلمات أغنية

deposited my anguish at the river bank again
i buoyed up my chest, but then my stomach sank again
i’ll drink the whole refrigerator row so i can think again
you tell me when i wanna feel tall to go see the shrink again

well, i was only going there so far away
so i could find where i was coming from
so i’d leave gladys in her chair and those religious figures stared
from in their frames up on the wall and wondered where i would be

you just need the mundane
to catch you by surprise
to know it as an offer
(yeah, i know)
then you’ve made your meal
of the crumbs of the crumbled world

they called it a fireball
what blurred by my sight
above 110 it burned and turned
from green to white, yeah it did

in sunday’s delusion could’ve thrown my drink at the wall
‘cus they’ll never understand what i internalize at all
that’s the freedom i draw from the brunch_eating throng
i take that sliver of periphery and stretch it far and long
so with axes for hands i’m climbin’ the cherry tree
the octopus is pregnant that has married me
well, all i’m standin’ on’s my instrument like jerry lee
just wanna be common, but don’t want no one to compare to me

you just need the mundane
to catch you by surprise
to know it as an offer
(i heard that once before)
then you’ve made your meal
of the crumbs of the crumbled world

where is there to go?
(so tell me man)
from conversations only starting with complaints
(if you ever were to be unwound)
what is there to do?
(how many times do you think you’d spin around?)
when our only exercise is our restraint
(if only i could turn all of my doubts to my employees)
what is there to say?
(i would have a big ‘ol white collar company)
when the advice that you want is just to corroborate
was it worth the wait?
when all the anger you’ve harbored began to carbonate
how much did you lose?
by the diluting of novelties that you nominate
so, like an old dog’s, my eyes were wet
i steamed up from the head
preceded by my frozen breath
o’er the bridge, down the street, back upstairs
to the television hum and gladys sittin’ in the same chair
a row of missing t__th appeared along her smile
as sweat and raindrops trickled from my temple to the tile
and that was it, it was my truest crumb of bread
standing there nodding, she was laughing, shaking her head
