Cocorosie: Animals

Now that I'm alone I feel the lonely brokennessOf all the wicked avenues I've ever sold my love onAll these moments of meekness and trembling subsidedI'm the outright abandon of this orphan childHome is on the highway living on soft bread and solaceI guess I'm waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipseAnd to wake up half emptyOnly to be filled again with mourningHe's my evil shadow doveMy black PalamitoCan't break him like a diamond skullI can't seem to do soCan't just rob him out like theMob used to do soLike memories of porno and tearstainsAnd tobacco O it's a mini disastroBigger than the ice age don't know if baby dinosaursMaybe could live through it, like Indians and butterfliesWhat's crushed is my spirit, Oh I fear it is too fragileLike fall leaves burn like paperI always knew I would spend a lot of time aloneNo one would understand meMaybe I should go and live amongst the animalsSpend all my time amongst the animalsAnd on the tracks I would go they lead to the seaTo be amongst the animalsOh I'm just afall leaf something simple and shy lie thatThat's how my heart lies down beside the sidewalkLike an empty restaurant filled with perfume and balloonsI sit and entertain the bisarro ghosts of my soulHis name still lingers maybe lactates on my tonguePerhaps I'm just teething for a foreign fallen destinyMiserable but mine, I look like his motherOr Sophia Loren in an old fashioned movieSlow motion I cling to my child desperate for loveOne day soon my brother died, made me remember all theSubordinate feelings I cast asideMaybe I had lied when I said I was okJust getting along like a little song that stops to sing and say"Wild willow, windy winter won't you blow through meMy whole eternity"
