Better Angels Lyrics

Califone Better Angels

William hovers bear trap teeth
Tender necks on tender knives

Cindy prone hung by heat
Soaks her dress in a long convulsion

-unremembering/nest on winter/bears/on broken trees that
we can last (eat each other)

orbits crack spring comes late william sheds another wife
wrists for pulses seed the clouds quiet as the first snow

-cold logic now/her hot tears make me erect/the shred of
hope that we could last

vexations gathering to re-assemble our impasse
better angles drunk adn slow sung to sleep in kitchen
Spanish

unremembering/nest on winter/bears/on broken trees that
we can last (eat each other)

better angels of our nature
mercy mercy let this change take
winter bears dream kitchen Spanish
mercy mercy let this healing take
