Lyrics

[00:11.05] To the name of this town in a desk-top globe
[00:14.74] Exit wound in a foreign nation
[00:18.04] Showing the home of the one this was written for
[00:22.03] My apartment looks upside down from there
[00:25.61] Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
[00:29.10] And her voice is a backwards record
[00:32.49] It's like a whirlpool and it never ends
[00:36.48]
[00:38.77] And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
[00:43.56] Listen Ana hear my words
[00:45.85] They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you
[00:50.83]
[00:54.42] Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all"
[00:57.91] Who was at the Dupont Pavilion?
[01:01.40] Why was the bench still warm? Who had been there?
[01:05.09] Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire
[01:08.68] To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
[01:12.27] And in the back of the edge of hearing
[01:15.65] These are the words the voice was repeating:
[01:19.54]
[01:21.94] And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
[01:26.72] Listen Ana hear my words
[01:28.91] They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you
[01:34.00]
[01:42.21] "I don't want the world, I just want your half"
[01:48.19]
[01:51.88] Where the world goes by like the humid air (world goes by)
[01:55.47] And it sticks like a broken record
[01:58.86] Everything sticks like a broken record
[02:02.45] Everything sticks until it goes away (it goes home)
[02:06.03] And the truth is, we don't know anything (don't know)
[02:09.83]
[02:12.23] And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
[02:16.92] Listen Ana hear my words
[02:19.31] They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you
[02:27.89]
[02:30.08] And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
[02:34.96] Listen Ana hear my words
[02:37.25] They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you
[02:45.83]
[02:48.12] And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
[02:53.00] Listen Ana hear my words
[02:55.20] They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you
