"Mexican
Women"
(written by Kristin Hersh)
Leave home
Blood
becomes a foreign substance
And see it as you let it dry
I forgive my nature or I'll be my saint
I can always feel you in heaven
Living in the past
I think if I remember that I'll forget
this
I know you will
Kill the sky,
the sun will fry us
Burn the rain, we'll die
Stares
from the back stairs
I tie your tie, set tables
I
won't run your party
You can't run my life
But the
waters run deep...
Once there was two Mexican women
Ran
over the hill,
Ripped off their skin and ate it up
Leave
the town for the children
(Lay their skin across the fire)
Leave their rings to their daughters and fly up
It's raining again, come home
It's raining in his hands
Oh, catch it, be brave
Grow, you'll make me cry, understand?
Be safe
No worry, so
Look what you do, you freeze my songs and please
Come on, catch me back
I can go faster than fast
Catch me, go give back a day
Land a seal too fast
Catch me, go give back a day
Spin the wheel too fast
Help me go give back a day
Live a day the past
