lirik lagu strange philosophies - dead animals
i saw a stingray upside down in the sand
so i flipped it around and made a pretty picture out of him
a torn up seagull on the dock in the bend
where the sawgrass of the bayou meets the mississippi sound at my shins
a shallow grave abuts a dune now again
where a once~cherished pet becomes a bitterly lost close friend
it makes me think of walter anderson
who would paint every carcass in hopes of giving life back to them
but i don’t have the sk!ll set
and i don’t have the tools
to bring thеm all back to life
to bend the will of god’s rulе
don’t have the intuition
don’t have the steady hand
i don’t have anything but a guilty heart
and a little sympathy for the d~mned
i hold my captives in a plexiglass pen
where the crabs and the fishes bump their noses and around they swim
he took a swallow and he took care of him
until he woke up one day to find him deader than a sea~swept limb
highlights the problem i’ve been having again
where possession and love make for an uneasy contradiction
it makes me think about the person i am
and how the things that i want can go much deeper than the ways that i sin
and i just want to love you
it sounds so easy to do
i want to learn from the things
that walter put them through
called him an object lesson
but i don’t have a clue
how to be who i want
and not a man who has values that he could never meet should he choose
