about

alternately saying something legitimate & trying to say something that sounds the way the legitimate thing sounded. tries on a host of skins, ends up murkied in the basement, given to some nostalgia that really means exhaustion.

lyrics

This is where I belong
In the part of the basement
That contained you & me
When we were only sixteen

This is where I belong
Up against city windows
Watching people pretend
& then join & forgive them

This is where I belong
Talking to my companion
Thinking about his face
Thinking about his future

This is where I belong
Talking to my companion
Thinking about her eyes
Thinking about my chances

This is where I belong
In a dress, in a jumpsuit
In a suitjacket tie
In the skin of a woman

This is where I belong
With my bones & my heartache
On the street where we walked
& I asked you to dinner

This is where I belong
With my bones & my footsteps
With the trash & the oil
With a thought hanging silent

This is where I belong
With the moon singing heavy
Where the trees bend & blow
With a thought hanging silent

This is where I belong
In the part of the basement
Where the heat engine whines
Where the air vent's athsmatic

This is where I belong
In the part of the basement
Where the moon's hanging low
When we were only sixteen

This is where I belong
This is where I belong
This is where I belong
This is where I belong
