Anatomical Literacy Songtext
von Jordan Klassen

I am someone beside me with a candle lit
I am someone beside me reading hieroglyph
On a wall in the dark
On the sleeves of a heart
Yellow flame twists about
Yellow veins crawling, pushing black out


Maggie is making lunch, she points her thumb at me
′There are some things a pushin through the soul of thee!
Little bonds, little strands, arm in arm, hand in hand
There's a code we can see! it is plain as the ease of breath and
Why do you see what you see?
You′ve got all the fate you need'

The far site is a hard sight
Sing louder in an oil field by the border

When you woke up beside me you had some to eat
When you woke up beside me I had cleanest feet
And I forfeit my head for a breakfast in bed
I had one, i could be, and the thought of a drive ahead was less
And I'd bet
That you could see
I had all the fate I′d need
