Creak, Cure, Dawn letra

Cane came and he weighed
My name against the sun
With cold coalescent moon
For each deed I've done
Ive scratched and choked
(The dawn) against the wall
For each tree and rock and verb
I swallowed whole
And what you need is a fading
Phrase to frame your cheek
And what you'll see are the sorry
Sounds and they way they sink
So I put my knees on the sidewalk
Where the swallow sleeps
And I learned to sing
Yes I learned to sing
From the gallows' creak

Swing (love) with a common
Tongue in a mortal star
Place bets when you
(Climb a brain)
We'll cut the knots
In the dusky dark they
Come the sun is warm
And I scratched and resuscitate
Now the day is done
And what you heard
Were the sorry sounds
And they way they were meant to walk
The hollow cross from craw to dirge
And you sold it off
Yeah you sold it off for a sin occurred
You know it's worth
When the sins are cured

Press dropped cause
You eyelids lie at this height
There's a place where
The trees all die and let the light
Of the sun burn each one into a grim
Put its lips where the brick had rot
Are quivering
Cause what was gone was
The simple shapes your breath had drawn
And you stared in awe at the weeks
You'd only filled with hum
And your lungs they sunk the last
Plum wisp of a dropping sun
And your red light's on
Yeah your red light screams
Like a buzzing dawn

Creak, cure, dawn
