Lyrics
Thank You Lord, For Sending Me The F Train
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The dark is droppping like a spot
of black ink squeezed into a glass of water,
And now the crowds are thinning out
into the light down in the subway station.
Here, this train speeds underground
This train speeds under the river
And I will drift back to the slope,
Some face unlit, there, stuck into the incline,
Where I will sleep off all the noise
the soot accumulated,
All my trials
I thank you
Lord almighty up above
Just for sending out the F train to me
So thankful
For all the unspent love
That I save up in the jar of money
Your polaroid is on the wall,
Stuck in the crack between the door and door-frame,
Trapped in the middle of some laugh,
Some drunken joke some friend of yours was telling.
