The Broken String

The present and past merge like a broken string
(hey.....)
So the string's broken
Bouncing along, what are you doing?
(Hey...)
It snapped all at once
(big thoughts are bigger than the fish that you caught)
If you wanted to ask my opinion when you stepped out, stepped up
Left it all open to the state I'm in
(it snapped all at once, you wanted to break the string, break the string)
(Hey)
46 & 2 and a scrape on the legs
Falling off, but no blood
Disjointed--like a broken string
Swelling going down? Well that's swell
(Hey..)
46 & 2 and then I smelled the paper mill
Everytime the fog settled, I could smell it
I was in it
Why would you ever go so far away?
If you only saw the ocean just a couple of times
You wasted your time there
The sky, the sun, the clouds, the winter
Sunset at 4
I never saw the forest at night
(The air is thick with meat)
