lirik lagu bambara - dive shrine
[verse 1]
he sits slumped on the barstool
lips twitch as he fights to hold a grin
aiming sighs at designs on the bottles
the owner’s dogs, when they whine, kind of look like him
but when old thoughts arise, he’s the happiest hound drooling on the bar
howling divine from the bathroom line
while pinb~lls trigger visions of dead stars
says he’ll stowaway to rome
itching to smash a holy skull
[verse 2]
while back, his girl picked out his casket
high sheen, sh~llacked, jet black, and cheap
she said, “i like that it reminds me of his jacket
hate to think he’s cold in the еarth so deep”
now, he shivers alone whеn he’s home
haunts the bar for some company
says, “let’s leave these fiends to tweak freely in the shadows
my roof’s got a view of the neighbor’s new tv”
[bridge]
his face looks like a painting in the disco light
he’s treated like a stranger though he’s here each night
a lotus slowly opens in a bowl near his seat
he wishes he could smell it, but his nose always seems to bleed
[verse 3]
says, “this place is kind of a memorial site
for a sprouting love whose bud was cut
i’d sign the lease, tend the needs of this dive~shrine
to keep its relics from the jaws of the garbage truck
‘cause it’s getting hard to protect, you see
time untwines all ties to memory
and people rarely come to pay their respects
or sing some pasty cline over a backing beat
soon i’ll find a room in the city
leave my things for the weeds
‘cause all i’ll need’s a radiator and some sp~ce to breathe
a place to get some sleep and outlive my dreams”
