Holopaw - Short-Wave Hum (Stutter) lyrics

rate me

Fold the KOA map until we're shoulder to shoulder<br />

Take the horseshoe from the embers, set it in the snow<br />

Hook your finger in a coffee cup for a tiny little anchor<br />

Drop the needle on the record, let it drift into the black<br />

Standing at a spacewalk tether filtered through a short wave hum<br />

Sliding across telephone wires that run under the chill sea <br />

"Hello loretta."<br />

"Darling, I knew it was you<br />

Don't you know that your wide open spaces and shivering places<br />

Are the push pins on the map I'm pouring over"<br />

Hey little fare ye well.<br />

What's with the big bottom lip?<br />

Did your candles on the cake burn so low<br />

That you couldn't read the salutation?<br />

Standing on a glacial glow<br />

Horseshoe frozen below my feet<br />

Taking it's sweet time<br />

Tumbling towards the ocean<br />

You're steady losing that campfire glow<br />

But deep in the bunkhouse there's a spark<br />

Shoulder the reciever and breathe a barely-there "hello"<br />

Words slide across telephone wires (x2)<br />

Stutter under the crush of green water.
