Animal Joy

Lyrics to Animal Life
Animal Life Video:
Born inside the gates of the family

Hardened by a Roman machinery

Cast among the building sights

The calling wives, the shards collected.


Called out in the wake of the lottery

Hurled inside the family gathering

Mirrored beams and doglike stretch

The wandering association

Marbles in the dark confessional

And the rides along the road ephemeral

As an animal life!


Rustling in the shade of the batteries

Hanging from a rope in the gallery

Pacing down the balance beam of half remembered holidays

No rush of light, no sign of belonging

No joy in building love in the finishing

Chasing down an anodyne and half reflected radiance

To high below the ancient barricade

In chambers like the rooms a swallow made

For an animal life!


Charging down the mall with the ..

I wanna come close, I wanna come closer

I held your name inside my mouth

Through all the days out wandering

But called out from the mouth of ...

Cast away like dogs from the shelter

... that once collected radiance

Searching at the light's perimeter

The half remembered wild interior

of an animal life!
