"Silent Slam" lyrics
"Silent Slam"
Heavy black is what you wore
Heavy black is what you wore
Painting the memories into the melodies of the fog
That you carried
In the lines upon your face
That were not from nature's grace
That were not from nature's grace
Silent slam, silent slam
You never got there
Silent slam, oh, silent slam
You were caught here
And you slipped out the back
Oh you, slipped out the back
You slipped out the back
Closing the door
Carefully behind you
But your pails are full now
Your pails are full now
Sacks of dirt, you're draggin' and wastin' away
Hear the bells ring, Sunday morning again
And still you're here
Your head is full, your head is full
Your head is full, your head is full
Please let it run thick onto a remnant
Please let it run thick onto a remnant of
What has been lost
Silent slam, oh, silent slam
You never got there
Silent slam, silent slam
You were caught here
And you slipped out the back
You slipped out the back
Oh, you slipped out the back
Closing the door
Gently behind you
And your head is full, your head is full
Your head is full, your head is full
Please let it run thick onto a remnant
Please let it run thick onto a remnant of what has been lost
Can you grasp it again, before it folds you?
Can you grasp it again, before it folds you?
Can you grasp it again, before it folds you too?
Before it folds you too?
Before it folds you too?

Aldous Harding - "The Barrel" I feel your love
I feel time is up
When I was a child, I never knew enough
What'd that do to me?
The wave of love is a transient hunt
Water's the shell and we are the nut
But I saw a hand arch out of...
Asaf Avidan - "Between These Hands" Between these hands
There is a silence
Loud as a baby

Born without breath
There is a darkness
Prunin' my fingers
Sure as a shadow

Takin' your place
Between these...

Be my shrink for the hour
Keep the meter running

Maybe there's a kingdom above the weather
