The Mountain Goats
The Pieman
For days I watched you from my place
A thousand miles away in space
Remembering your body, how it turned me into what I am now
I have not broken any laws
To work toward my stupid cause
I can see you now from where I am
I can see you completely

I planted hedges of hydrangea
Because you were going to Pennsylvania
And I didn't know what else to do
I wanted to put my hands on you
I wanted to tell you everything
But I ended up here orbiting
I can see you now
I can feel you now
From where I am, I can see you completely

I went into your room
It got so crazy in there
The air turned hot and I saw them
But I didn't read your letters
I will never bleed like I used to bleed again
I can't bleed like normal men
But I can see you
My heart beats like a magic drum
From where I am, I can see you completely
