Heavy Cotton Hands

(by Jesse Payne)

Cautious wheels

strongbox stove

shallow creek

drown my bones

Yeah we’ll try to keep the lids closed

Yeah we’ll try to keep the lids closed

A crippled roof

leaks the swell

on humble eyes

empty shelf

A glass embrace behind your couch falls

we tell ourselves

Heavy cotton hands hold us

Yeah we’ll try to keep the lids closed

Yeah we’ll try to keep the lids closed
