AMY ANNELLE (the places): hear

come morning

(the places)

rough mix from Tiny Telephone session. Engineered by Jay Pellicci.
i just about tracked down the other blue-eyed savior. i think he's been drinking somewhere, in an old-man bar, drinking down my last dime. still no sign. terrible things come to pass but sublime, you move on, like it never happened, like it doesn't matter--like it doesn't matter--how do you get away with it?

calling bad names, falling down drunk, calling bad names when you're falling down and making me chase you all over the yard, to bless & keep you out of the ravine...amazing. 'cause i love you just the same come morning.

you could swap your space for mine, and we'd both do alright. i would get better weapons, i would learn how to lie--and you would get regret, and a necessary measure of kindness.

and then you'd chase me, falling down drunk, falling down and calling you bad names. i'm doing terrible things, using up your heart. i'm standing at the edge of the ravine to make you save me. and you'll love me just the same come morning.
