Ablutions

from Fall Through Sparks by Able Baker

/

lyrics

close your eyes remember
cold evening December
closed curtains colored soft mint
left our raisin fingerprints
perk an ear for turning locks and mother
still soaking bathwater
kept cooling the heats gone
we lost ours way too young
I may have had a shot once
wasted it how thoughtless

keep these thoughts at bay
wash the wear away

drove in a bout of deep snow
small shovel broke in two so
my feet frozen from kicking that thick white cement
tires broke through but I never could quite dig you out
look to dash glass for a guessing glimpse of true love’s gaze
seems like ages pass through those tinted window panes
drained all of what my delicate strength could allow
what ate you up then eats me up now

ablutions give me time to think of what I wanna do
what I wanna say
putz about under this spout
my reflection is blurry
ablutions give me time to dream a continent
forget the coordinates anyway
ablutions give me time to forget
to keep these thoughts at bay
