EVERYTHING'S SINKING

I dreamed of rats, slick with rain.

Drowning on the banks of marble.

Crawling for air. Gasping and rolling.

Woke up feeling quite unstable.

Lime work cracks. Basements flood.

Shin-deep in water.

Stone and salt. Wine and smoke.

Wet clothes stuck to my body.

Oh, Everything’s sinking.

Walls wet with blood. Buckets of mud.

Pound an old pipe with a hammer.

A patch and a kiss. Repair what’s been fixed.

The city waits upon a funeral.

No sign of light. Italian night.

Still the bridges simmer.

From the room into the drink.

Bells ring like death around me.

It’s alright. Another night. (Everything’s Sinking)

Wooden room. Like a tomb. (Everything’s Sinking)
