I'm a bright[00:00:24]
White egg and I incubate in a warm[00:00:25]
Yellow light in the winter[00:00:31]
And I'll hatch on a snow-covered morning[00:00:37]
And no one will be awake to see it happen[00:00:39]
There is no history[00:00:48]
There's no expectation[00:00:51]
Just warm[00:00:55]
Yellow light on my skin[00:00:56]
And I'm blessed by my mother[00:01:02]
Though I'll never know her[00:01:05]
And I'll never be lonesome again[00:01:08]
I'm a bright entertainer in a silent theater I wearily quarry into[00:01:42]
And my mother she stands where the characters dance from the light[00:01:54]
At the height of the room[00:02:02]
And every night I repeat the phrases[00:02:06]
Just to see if she predicts the changes[00:02:12]
And I'd die for a word if it's all she'd afford[00:02:19]
But she closes up knowing it[00:02:25]
Where I am is right at the beginning of it[00:02:58]
All I know I was born with[00:03:09]
Where she is[00:03:24]
She is fixed in a prison so fast she is frozen[00:03:30]
The air she breathes is a slow wind[00:03:37]
I'm a tired arachnid[00:03:50]
Spinning loose in my threads[00:03:52]
Building lifetimes of gossamer beds[00:03:56]
And the filigree waterdrops around my head[00:04:02]
They absorb every word that I said[00:04:08]
There are no wings hitched to my spine[00:04:14]
Just an undying urge to climb[00:04:22]
And I'll wait for my mother[00:04:29]
Supposing she'd bother to hold me and keep me a while[00:04:32]
To hold me and keep me a while[00:04:41]
