Lyrics:
SHORT WAVE RADIO
I still have that short wave radio
that you sent to me
And I carry it from room to room
with the dying batteries
And the news of the world
with its fools and their swords
fills these rooms like a fog...
Someday the stone will be rolled away
and I'll stumble through
And I'll say a life lived outside the fray
is all I can do.
And I saw in the field
All the crows attack the dear
And I knew my end was near
But only in the way the soul can't shake off what it fears
---
I dreamed the stones fell like snow
falling around me
All the angels, saints and gargoyles
shattered on the street
And I woke to the bells
Ringing loud for someone else
It's still a death in of itself
And all this time I thought that you had loved someone else.
