A Glass Can Only Spill What It Contains

A Glass Can Only Spill What It Contains - MeWithoutYou[00:00:00]

Written by:Brad Wood[00:00:01]

A cat came drifting onto my porch from the outside cold[00:00:24]

And with eyes closed drinking warm milk from my bowl[00:00:31]

Thought[00:00:38]

Nobody hears me nobody hears me[00:00:39]

As I crept in so soft[00:00:43]

And nobody sees me nobody sees me[00:00:46]

As I watched six steps off[00:00:51]

Like peacocks wandering the walkways of the zoo[00:00:54]

Who have twice the autonomy the giraffes and the tigers do[00:01:01]

Saying[00:01:08]

No one can stop me no one can stop me[00:01:09]

No one clips my claws[00:01:13]

Now everyone watch me everyone watch me[00:01:16]

Scale these outside walls[00:01:21]

Oh you pious and profane[00:01:23]

Put away your praise and blame[00:01:26]

Said a glass can only spill what it contains[00:01:28]

To the perpetually plain the incurably inane[00:01:31]

A glass can only spill what it contains[00:01:36]

What new mystery is this[00:01:39]

What blessed backwardness[00:01:41]

The immeasurable one is held and does not resist[00:01:42]

Struck by wicked words and foolish fists of senseless men[00:01:46]

The almighty one does not defend[00:01:50]

I was halfway listening to what she thinks she knows[00:01:55]

We're like children dressing in our parents clothes[00:02:02]

Saying[00:02:08]

Nobody knows me nobody knows me[00:02:09]

No one knows my name[00:02:14]

Nobody knows me nobody knows me[00:02:17]

No nobody knows me[00:02:21]

I half heatedly explained[00:02:23]

But gave up peacefully ashamed[00:02:26]

A glass can only spill what it contains[00:02:28]

We went to Portugal and Spain[00:02:31]

And in her mind the entire time it rained[00:02:33]

A glass can only spill what it contains[00:02:36]

What new mystery is this[00:02:39]

In overflowing emptiness[00:02:41]

The invisible is seen among the shadows and the mist[00:02:43]

Before my doubting eyes the infinite appears in time[00:02:46]

The unquestionable is questioned but makes no reply[00:02:50]

What new mystery is this[00:02:53]

What new mystery is this[00:02:55]

What new mystery is this[00:02:57]

What new mystery is this[00:02:59]

What new mystery is this[00:03:01]

My rabbi[00:03:03]

My lips betray with a kiss[00:03:04]

What new mystery is this[00:03:06]
