House Shape Mount Eerie
[Bb] [E] [B] [Bb]
[Bb]I stayed inside all morning
[G]watching waves of rain pass over
[F]cold and dry by the window
I didn't turn a light on.
The fi[Bb]replace dead since last night
[G]emptiness inside, cold morning
[F]low grey sky immense living belly
of a silver fur thing.
In w[Bb]aves of weather the house lies
[G]piled up wood with me inside
[F]I'm piled up dust, alive, dreaming
or walking whirlpool of water
[Bb]awake and indifferent
looking at c[G]ars go by and then get forgotten
on[F]ly a sound of a waterfall breathing out
in one long exhale
[Bb]rings in my ears for a moment
[G]then another wave of rain blows over
[F]greying out the light
the lawn through window seems undiscovered.
A se[Bb]parate way of seeing.
A se[G]parate way of breathing it in.
A l[F]ost world separate from the usual
barely meaningful waking and dreaming.
[Bb]Lost in an unfolding
[G]thinking about what to do with a day
[F]sitting while the light dies
until finally it's over.
In [Bb]blue dusk I finally step outside
[G]breathing in the cloud that has settled
[F]noticing a black looming house shape
and at last my eyes crack open.
