Cirrhosis of the Zither - Arwenack Avenue Lyrics



Cirrhosis of the Zither - Arwenack Avenue Lyrics




Your Olympus Trip and Jesus Christ
They were the two things I knew that you liked
Then Tom moved into Sonali's old room

God's children will marry fast
They'll leave a shared house at their first chance
Tom found the flat on Arwenack Avenue

Was I jealous? course I was
Mostly though I was reassured
Maybe some sweet lord would find me too

Getting Higher Ed on the lowest wage
Four nights in five we'd pull the pints at Jake's
We'd never let Tom's parents pay your way

Creation started with an empty space
Tom would stay at home and sculpt
Stay at home and paint
None of us around now to lead him astray

No one to deal him in or drag him out
No one to hear him collapse in the shower
You were singing when I left you on Woodlane

The rift is deep and the rift is wide
Between restarting a heart and restarting a life
And it holds eternities of hospital lights

I found you sobbing on the steps beside the crystal shop
Got you drunk up on the benches overlooking the docks
I can't remember
Was it something you said
Something I thought

How when you're standing on the inside
The Pearly Gates must open like
Pandora's Box
