Snow Country

from Madero's Window by Human Hand

	/

lyrics

Burnt my tongue as a child
Trying to speak in a world on fire
Trying to speak to people burning
I live in shelters of ice and rain

As I grow older I break all my toes
Your eyes unfold at the end of a balance-beam

Stars glisten
No, they tremble

I am Yasunari
I am Yasunari
I swallow the cosmos whole

When I walk outside
To the deafening silence of the world
It comes to me in dreams (&#@!&*#!)
I leave it waking
It comes to me in dreams
I speak it sadly

Don't show me any more
Don't show me anymore
