How's it stand? What are we?
Let that sand flush my cheeks
Wear me out
Keep me clean
Keep me longing
Keep that quiet company
Wear me out
I heard a voice telling me
Like your smoke waving
And my eyes repine
Wear me out
That wick won't burn away
It's giving uneven rings
Wear me out
Like a sister haunting absence
Like a sister who's finally had it
Like a room left open just for being kept
Like some lonely facet
Like the promise of a place and knowing you're neither here nor there
Wear me out
And the tree tops like crooked beliefs
Cross hatch crows feet reaching for the Baltimore heat
Let that sand flush my cheeks
Wear me out
Keep me clean
Keep me longing
Keep that quiet company
Wear me out
I heard a voice telling me
Like your smoke waving
And my eyes repine
Wear me out
That wick won't burn away
It's giving uneven rings
Wear me out
Like a sister haunting absence
Like a sister who's finally had it
Like a room left open just for being kept
Like some lonely facet
Like the promise of a place and knowing you're neither here nor there
Wear me out
And the tree tops like crooked beliefs
Cross hatch crows feet reaching for the Baltimore heat
