Lyrics

	Beneath The Southern Cross
	Patti Smith
	Oh
	To be
	Not anyone
	Gone
	This maze of being
	Skin
	Oh
	To cry
	Not any cry
	So mournful that
	The dove just laughs
	The steadfast gasps
	Oh
	To owe
	Not anyone
	Nothing
	To be
	Not here
	But here
	Forsaking
	Equatorial bliss
	Who walked through
	The callow mist
	Dressed in scraps
	Who walked
	The curve of the world
	Whose bone scraped
	Whose flesh unfurled
	Who grieves not
	Anyone gone
	To greet lame
	The inspired sky
	Amazed to stumble
	Where gods get lost
	Beneath
	The southern cross
	class of the boy
	class over
