The Brunt of Every Winter Lyrics by Caethua

The Long Afternoon of Earth

2005

Poor man
Were you blacked out when you said goodnight?
Without a shirt
In the street the red wet clay
Sullen sky
Were you blacked out when you said goodbye?
Without a star
A windless ache upon the neighbours' houses
I'll travel on
To leave behind the north, the east
My father
A swimming pool
The sticky heat, the south
And my mother
What will I have?
What will I have come winter?
Will I have a home come winter?
Or will I hang from rafters of icy timber
Like thе miller
And his wife who I try
But I still can't find
She lеft a blueprint
Of destined cold the brunt of every winter
She left a mark
Beneath her feet, of chalk
As faint as glimmer
What will have?
What will I have come winter?
