LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: PIRATESS/OKKERVIL RIVER





Who wrote those lines on the wall?
Let's retrace where they scrawled ancient characters
It's 2:00 and your sister's slip falls
And the afternoon crawls across the room and tackles her
I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through
'Cause I don't believe that you might be a murderess
But I saw inside each small dark eye as it was turning blue
All the strength inside to do just what the captain says and hang the rest
Moved by the rhyme in the psalm
We agreed that it was wrong and to believe in it
Swooned the wall all night long
But a lie is a lie, no matter what guy's breath's in it
I don't know that I would go that far down some dark avenue
With a whispering crew of shadows all protecting it
But I saw inside each small white lie as it was turning true
The ability to do all things expected of it

I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through
'Cause I don't believe that you might be a murderess
Did you hide inside each small white lie before it turning true
The ability to see and to do all the things the captain says

Murderess, in the wilderness
With your victims all around you
Their combined love forms a pool your knife's reflected in
And now I'm read to, with my throat to you
On this mountain, by this moon
What I want the most to do is prove that I'm not like them

LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: WAKE UP AND BE FINE/OKKERVIL RIVER





Someone said to me
I'm coming to your dream
And speaking to you
I already knew
I found her in an attic
Where dramatically
She leaned into to me
She whispered these lines

Wake and be fine
You still got time
To wake and be fine

Graces me with more
Embraces in the streets
Say help me to stranger
Grab on to me
Carrying their years around
It's all been chasing down as we rot
Here at the same time

Can we wake and be fine
We still got time
To wake and be fine

Feelings on the creek
The killers in the crowd
I'm coming apart
A child in house
Lovers in the sheets
Dreaming lovers
Sweetly turning asleep
Along the same beats
Everybody's crashing
The world is calling around
The cupboard and things
The cat couldn't sleep
Someone said to me
It's just a dream
Why don't you wake up and you'll see
It's fine

An the miles racing over
endless fields of snow
You've already heard
You already know
Rescue car finally
lost their heart
And then they shattered their bones
Died all alone
Ships on broken beach
Pirates sails for water
Hot afternoons
Goodbye and good news
Dreams above ahead
Clouds are hard to crash
Loudly and so
Rocks and go survive

Wake and be fine
You've still got time
To wake and be fine

You can be fine
Be fine
Be fine
