[ti: FULTON STREET I]
[length: 04:41]
[00:29.67]Found a body at the rest stop
[00:31.84]Buried in the woods beneath
[00:36.60]The garbage and leaves
[00:39.13]Workers clearing overgrowth
[00:42.51]Saw hidden in the brush
[00:45.33]Just beyond the line of the trees
[00:48.53]A jawbone and teeth
[00:50.85]Winter into spring on Fulton Street
[00:56.34]And cities grow weeds, and cities grow
[01:02.32]And cities keep secrets in the trees
[01:06.17]In the shadow of the pyramid
[01:08.28]The cities grow weeds, the cities grow
[01:11.46]By the river and the covered bridge
[01:13.99]The cities grow weeds, I know
[01:17.67]All the memories your dreams retrieve
[01:20.05]Pick a dress out for the funeral
[01:22.98]Hold the vigil in the field, release
[01:26.24]Lanterns at night and I saw
[01:28.73]On the shoulder of the interstate
[01:31.43]When I followed your eyes, when I followed your eyes
[01:35.29]All the crosses for the accidents
[01:37.67]All the photos in the flowers by the street
[01:43.55]Will I ever put flowers by the street?
[01:49.26]Will I ever put flowers by the street?
[01:52.56]Never needed to live and suffer through the pain
[01:55.35]All the tyrannies of grief, if I ever do
[01:57.81]Will I even have the strength to do anything?
[02:01.07]Could I go and leave flowers by the street?
[02:27.32]And I saw signs on the shoulder of the interstate
[02:30.58]When I followed your eyes
[02:32.53]And I saw lights fading every monument
[02:36.39]And the passage of time
[02:38.22]If I could just try, could I banish all the pain in you?
[02:42.45]Give you everything you need
[02:43.92]If I hid rose quartz underneath the mattress, would it help your nights
[02:48.22]When you’re struggling to sleep, when you’re struggling to sleep
[02:51.37]Will I ever be half what I can be?
[03:00.37]Can I ever be half what I can be?
[03:03.45]If you needed me to be anything
[03:06.11]Could I even be half of what you need?
[03:09.28]Will I ever be me? Will I ever be me?
[03:14.52]If I can take hands to shake you, would you want me to?
[03:18.20]If it shook you out of grief, if I gave chase
[03:21.13]Summers when you tunneled into nothingness
[03:23.72]Would it bring you some release?
[03:25.98]If I saw signs on the shoulder of the interstate
[03:30.10]When I followed where your eyes went
[03:32.10]If I saw nights spent after midnight in a eulogy
[03:35.52]Which you never got to give
[03:37.72]And I saw fenders bent hard on an oak tree
[03:41.82]Also sirens at the scene
[03:43.71]I saw cigarettes falling in the tangle of machinery
[03:47.79]Between the console and the seat
[03:49.66]And I saw hands reach, car lurched across the center line
[03:53.57]I saw it all in my dreams
[03:55.45]And I saw leaves hiding bodies in the treeline off the interstate
[03:59.42]But I’ve never put flowers by the street
[04:05.78]I’ve never put flowers by the street
[04:08.51]If you need from me, to be anything
[04:11.53]I could be everything you need
[04:14.65]If you need from me, to be anything
[04:17.64]I could be everything you need
[04:20.72]Every monument, every memory
[04:23.06]And I’ve never put flowers by the street
