Swans - A piece of the sky

^D6Through a door in the end On a crumbling stair ^G6In a clear and rushing vein In a tunnel full of rain ^EmIn a piece of yellow light On the skin of my eye ^D6Are you there?

^D6In the wind of my lung In methane and in love ^G6In petroleum plumes There's a floating slice of moon ^EmIn your tooth and your claw And your unforgiving jaws ^D6Are you there?

^D6On a burning white ship In the taste of her lips ^G6In the blood of the swans As the sun fucks the dawn ^EmIn the mud of the lake In the drunk and the dazed ^D6Are you there?

^D6In the now that is not On a ladder to God ^G6On a mountain stripped bare With your hand in my hair ^EmBehind the face of the sky On a disappearing lie ^D6Are you there?

^D6In the then that was now In the now that is not ^G6In our names we forgot In a thought we just lost ^EmWe become what we choose We are stumbling fools ^D6Who are not there

^D6There's some tangled dirty twine In some idiot's clouded mind ^G6There's some wires that won't unwind Around the ankles of the blind ^EmThere's some walls lined with soft lead And in that room is your bed ^D6Is that really you?

^D6Are you in there? ^D6On the moon? ^D6In the air? ^D6In my hand? ^D6Thrown in a fire?
