On a Neck, On a Spit
(neck could refer to a guitar or other 'necked' instrument, I think 'spit' refers to the archaelogical, or a coastal landform, though it could refer to rotisserie style turning thoughts over again and again, especially since most animals on a spit are impaled through the neck... I am actually convinced that the intended message includes all of those meanings)
My messenger in disguise
(this song)
makes up for such short goodbyes
(art has permanence)
You can't come home again
Each time it's different
(old adage: "you can never go home")
And the yards around your feet fall away while you're asleep
(when you're not paying attention, when you're not in the place, it dissapears, again referring to the types of spit mentioned above)
Each day, spend it with me now
All my time, spend it with me now
(the narrator spends all their time with themselves now)
But each day spend it with you now
All my time, spend it with you now
(but they wish for the object of the song)
But out here, no one can hear me
Out hear no one can hear me
(out where they're singing their message cannot be heard)
