joe henry - plainspeak lyrics
a blind man looks out through your eye
he hears the color of your sigh;
tastes a laugh upon your thigh, then roars—
oh, let’s be clear, my sighing balladeer:
i want nothing more than
you to hear me now
there’s red iron in the sliding clay
it stains our knees and turns away
the blood-l-sty angels looking to rumble in town—
oh, let me be clear, my sliding bombardier:
i want nothing more than
you to find me now
here’s how i’m leaning, word for word
no matter what you think you’ve heard:
when i say, “bird,” i mean a bird, no less and not more—
oh, let it be clear, my leaning auctioneer:
i want nothing more than
you to raise me now
i’m thirsting after righteous gloom
with daylight streaming in this room;
and the loss of love one day soon may bear me out and away—
but let’s be clear, my streaming volunteer:
i want nothing more than
you to see me now
but let’s be clear, my streaming volunteer:
i want nothing more than
you to hear me now
