Dust motes in a beam of light
They slow down time
Snowflake on a black wool glove
Melting in the sunlight
Dust motes in a beam of light
You left without a fight
Dust motes in a beam of light
Slow down time
It's cold outside
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
Your transgressions
There's a vulture at the end of my bed
It's 5am
It thinks I'm dead
There's a vulture at the end of my bed
Against the window in silhouette
There's a vulture that would have me asleep
It's looking at me like I'm some piece of meat
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
If you die
If you die
Everybody says I'll be alright
I don't think so
Cried over my supper
It revived
Got off the table
Started to fly
If you die
If you die
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
Dust motes in a beam of light
They slow down time
