Lyrics

Dry Your Eyes

I would describe myself

As the landscape I buried

My mother's face

As she carried me

How her water raged and emptied

Dry your eyes

Those tears are all you're given

It's no surprise now

Your heaven's what you're living in

I would describe myself

As the colour field I married

My New York pages

How they prepared my sheets

And the dirges caged and cared for me

Dry your eyes

Those tears are all you're given

It's no surprise now

Your heaven's what you're living in

Whenever auntie moves around

Her dress makes a curious sound

They trail behind her up the floor

And trundle after through the door

Dry your eyes

Those tears are all you're given

It's no surprise now

Your heaven's what you're living in

Dry your eyes

Those tears are all you're given

It's no surprise now

Your heaven's what you're living in
