Concrete - Thea Gilmore[00:00:00]
November in a rainstorm the truest truth I ever heard[00:00:06]
The sound of babies crying in a hospital ward[00:00:12]
Oh like a bed of rushes[00:00:18]
They spread love out on the concrete floor[00:00:20]
Names and dates and faces[00:00:23]
I really can't remember anymore[00:00:26]
We could hardly tell the difference[00:00:34]
Between one year and another[00:00:37]
Sun like pouring whiskey snow[00:00:40]
Like shedding skins of lovers[00:00:43]
And I grew up with magic[00:00:46]
Free wild as bindweed[00:00:49]
Pushing for the boundary[00:00:52]
Pushing through the edges of the concrete[00:00:55]
I'm the girl bought a round-trip cross the Rubicon[00:01:03]
And I'm not sure that even I know where I'm coming from[00:01:14]
Sentimental tango when I was just fourteen[00:01:32]
I could hear astaire and Rogers tap their way across the screen[00:01:37]
Oh bullied and belittled[00:01:43]
Until the sun set in the concrete[00:01:45]
I wore my sister's black skirt[00:01:49]
All dressed up for Halloween[00:01:52]
We could hardly tell the difference[00:01:59]
Between the shouting and the quiet[00:02:02]
It was the path of least[00:02:06]
Resistance to stage my own private riot[00:02:08]
And the walls tumbled[00:02:12]
Like babel down around my feet[00:02:13]
Rhyme came in deliverance[00:02:17]
Rising through the wreckage and the concrete[00:02:20]
I'm the girl bought a round-trip cross the Rubicon[00:02:28]
I'm not sure that even I know[00:02:40]
Where I'm coming from[00:02:46]
For a girl who loves her words[00:02:58]
Yeah she loves her silence more[00:03:00]
Found a better example of[00:03:03]
What hearts and tongues are for[00:03:06]
There is truth in your arm's love[00:03:09]
There is truth in this song[00:03:12]
There is truth in the concrete and the nails[00:03:15]
That our lives are built upon[00:03:19]
