Just a red hat runaway shuffling by the stairs
Walking sidewalks silent through the thick sheet of stares
Broken homes teach us how to spread like the wind
Dollar bill bird necklaces and a picture of Marilyn
Come with me and I’ll show you the world you deserve
Cascadian cloud comforts and a love that don’t desert
I don’t have much at all but I’ll give what I can
I got a road map to Terilingua and a place to rest your head
So go to sleep little girl
Go to sleep while the world
Wraps and reigns round and round
Let your weight come unbound
Fly with me to a place
With creek flow and ribbon bend
Wile away all your hours
While crooked crows sing with the owls
The emptiness in your eyes crashed right into my shoe
You stared straight down unfastened unpolished and blue
Bleached and beached windblown hair with the curl so unkept
Holographic beauty floats fearlessly through grey streets of empty depth
Come with me and I’ll show you the world you deserve
The the whole world ain’t full of hatred
There are some who still believe
That everyone deserves a home
And there’s enough to go around
We can open up, invite them in
And put our hands up to the sound
So go to sleep little girl
Go to sleep while the world
Wraps and reigns round and round
Let your weight come unbound
Fly with me to a place
With creek flow and ribbon bend
Wile away all your hours
While crooked crows sing with the owls
