Testo 16 Days - Slobberbone

Testo della canzone 16 Days (Slobberbone), tratta dall'album Crow Pot Pie

For sixteen days

I've stayed in this bedroom

In this Indian summer

It's made me sick

I don't use the phone

And I don't write no letters

All I can do is lay here and sweat

And this wretched house

It falls down around me

The air has turned foul

The walls have turned brown

They rot in the glow

Of a single light bulb

Once there was paint

But now there's just dust

And I don't know why I'm kept prisoner here

But there's no fear in these eyes

And I don't know why no one talks to me

But it's so clear when you try

She had grace

And a natural beauty

She was a girl

Raised on a farm

A constant source

Of disappointment

For both of her folks

And they don't know why

She had a love

For a life she suspected

Lay somewhere else

Beyond these crops

But she couldn't speak

And they wouldn't listen

So her dreams lay fallow

And hope turned to dust

And I don't know why I'm kept prisoner here

But there's no fear in these eyes

And I don't know why no one talks to me

But it's so clear when you try

We sit in the yard

On broken down loungers

Trying to grow food

Rusted out grill, drinking a beer

Burning our fingers, watching the dog pee on the car

And the trees all look sick now, the grass has turned brown

And the bird bath's broken and the fence fallen down

And the gate, it hangs crooked on rusted out hinges

And the heat never leaves when the sun sinks down

Once we had meaning, but now we're just hollow

And once we felt pain, but now we're just numb

Once there were words, but now there's just glances

And once we were smart, but now we're just dumb, just dumb

And I don't know why I'm kept a prisoner here

There's no fear in these eyes

And I don't know why no one talks to me

But it's so clear when you try

And I don't know why I'm kept a prisoner here

There's no fear in these eyes

And I don't know why no one talks to me

But it's so clear
