ashes of american flags.
the cash machine is blue and green
for a hundred in twenties and a small service fee
I could spend three dollars and sixty-three cents
on diet coca-cola and unlit cigarettes
I wonder why we listen to poets
when nobody gives a fuck
how hot and sorrowful
this machine begs for luck
all my lies are always wishes
I know I would die if I could come back new
I want a good life
with a nose for things
a fresh wind and bright sky
to enjoy my suffering
a hole without a key
if I break my tongue
speaking of tomorrow
how will it ever come?
all my lies are always wishes
I know I would die if I could come back new
I'm down on my hands and knees
every time the doorbell rings
I shake like a toothache
when I hear myself sing
all my lies are only wishes
I know I would die if I could come back new
I would like to salute
the ashes of American flags
and all the fallen leaves
filling up shopping bags
gostaria de assistir.
