The Weather Station - Ribbon Lyrics




(Standing at the back of the club - I watched you hit the drum) Shuddering rhythm transmits the rhythm. Fluttering in it - there too - the feeling. Undulating, waving, a wave in it hits me again. Temperamental strip of metal rattling in a porous cage - can't help shaking every time - lightning strikes again and again. My pain is ordinary. My pain is a canary, singing in the mine, trying to keep you alive. My pain is ordinary, I'm just like anybody - shaken shook up - water on the lip of a cup. Shaking all over from you - or whatever - rattled the plane of skin stretched over flesh and water, can't help but move, can't help shaking with the truth. My pain is ordinary, I'm just like anybody. I had to drive cross country just to - I had to drive three highways just to get away from you. Go down to the harbour - just like anybody - I go straight down to the water just to - put my hands in it - feel if it's cold - bring it to my mouth to taste the salt - tang on my lips, just like a kiss, just like tears this ocean is -"
