Where June Meets July: IV. O Tonight
"You still awake?"
"Yea, I’m too wired to sleep, wanna talk a while?"
"Meet me outside? I’ll Sneak out the window the Summer streets in katydid choirs"
"You’re not like the crowd I know they praise the match over the fire"
"You know my mom used to say stuff like that:
Boy, Folks will fill on filigree when their words are starved for meaning
And if something is true it don't need fancy frames
Like you soaked in pool glow in the grass hopping the gate"
O Tonight
We burn every fetter down
O tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
Don’t slow your pace just cause swine step over pearls
We face the chance of now, o tonight
So why the stage if you abominate that city act?
O I like fiction; 'til it's sold as fact
Guess all I've ever wanted is to feel like someone's looking back
Thought if only I could say it right, they'd understand
O Tonight
We burn every fetter down
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O Tonight
To reach writhing out from your heart with a pen
O Tonight
And have the hue of the ink all that they review
They only hear the words that they already say
I’m never gonna fit within that world they feign
But O a lion raised alone by sheep or shrew
Wouldn’t know what its own teeth could do!
Hold out your hand
A Maple Seed to plant when you get back
So there’s more than one beautiful thing there…
O Tonight
We burn every fetter down
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O Tonight
No green-witch line, cydon drawn through atlas mean
Between the pillars that he parts a cup and string:
O Tonight
We burn every fetter down
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now
O Tonight
O they only hear words they already say
O Tonight
They don't make friends, they make political displays
O Tonight
We burn fetters at the altar of tonight
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O Tonight
We burn fetters at the altar of tonight
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O Tonight
We burn fetters at the altar of tonight
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O Tonight
We burn fetters at the altar of tonight
O Tonight
Raise a banner, we face the chance of now tonight
O you made a necklace a wheel around that maple seed
But how's a tree supposed to ever grow like that?
