David Grubbs - The Thicket lyrics
To begin with, it's a voice much like the one that last spoke as an echo it edits it only tells half a joke A gap precedes the rejoinder editorially it's cruel a statement comes back a question a question returns a rule You could set your watch to it if you didn't care about the time When you decide to level with the thicket can you really play it or do you just trick it? You learn not to mind the gaps the rhythm is positively tidal it renders up a presence in which silence returns as an idle Silence returns idling in a purr idling like a delayed punch or a line marking contours of a figure inescapably blunt When you decide to level with the thicket can you really play it or do you just trick it? And then it's our two voices estranged, in non sequitur jokes multiply as phrases divide along a higher form of humor With two of us before the thicket i answer you with a question that by definition returns in shards of gambit, or just ambition |
