Home Is Where
Alsace-Lorraine
Sophie, I lay my bones at your feet
Dangling from the sycamore tree
Its branches recoil in fever dreams
And everybody's still waving from the street
All the dogs in the neighborhood
Have run away
They know something we don't
But are too afraid
To say it to our face
Sophie, I lay my bones at your feet
(SOPHIE I LAY MY BONES AT YOUR FEET)
Dangling from the sycamore tree
(DANGLING FROM THE SYCAMORE TREE)
Its branches recoil
And everybody's still waving from the street
All the dogs in the neighborhood
Have run away
They know something we don't
But are too afraid
To look us in the eye and
SAY IT
TO
MY
FACE
