Testo Will - Youngblood Brass Band
Testo della canzone Will (Youngblood Brass Band), tratta dall'album Is That a Riot?
You will sit down to write a letter with no recipient
You will stumble, but it will feel true
Do you not stumble?
You will look out the window onto the empty street
And appear to reflect
But it is appearance
You are soaking
You are certain that all the air in the house is conspiring to hum
And you will sing to it, silently
You will consider your noble deceased
Those who left you here to finish a painting
Already sold, displayed, and burned
With joy
It is with joy
You will sleep and you will wake
And it will be memory
And even that will be memory
The ink will age, remembering
And the inkwell gives, eventually
You will consider the fallen snow, the falling snow
And the unaware sea that will soon watch his
Children be swept up into their perfect dream
You will know each crystalline picture named by a nameless admirer
You will admire her
You may love her
It is just fine to guess
You will be studied by people
People are studious
Pay attention to students
They pay with their youthfulness
You will open a book and greet your reflected image
It is image, imagination
And already
Gone
You will close a book and imagine another
Tomorrow, image, another
You will meet her a thousand times
Or once years ago
It will be years ago before you know her
It will occupy you
It will make its home in your head
Will set up shop in your soul
Will commandeer your hands
Don't buy nothing just yet
You will hear a different set of notes while wandering
You will be in awe of many people
They will applaud this
It will be trying
Try to become their applause
You will have to be chaos
You will have to collect consciousness without keeping him
For the rest of the senses, the less aware, are waiting
You will clap
You will attend your friends' ceremonies
Your family's rituals, your own funeral
You will clap
You will intend to tell your father
You will attempt to steal your mother
You will extend the life of your teachers
And you will end
It is appearance, image
You will envy every lit candle
You will wish upon each wick
You will stitch her a wound that only you can undo
You will put on a stolen sweater and saunter
Off to school, pretending to be her pupil
But you will not be in her eyes
You will see
It is sight
She will look
Luminous
You will keep moving
You will find yourself an old forest
You will befriend the picture, the shoots, the stalks
Then you will fire
You will light
Will be done
It is appearance
Joy
Image
Will
You will be done
