Fatherless

[Letra de "Fatherless"]

[Verso]
You will be aware of an absence, presently
Growing beside you, like a tree
A death tree, color gone, an Australian gum tree
Balding, gelded by lightning - an illusion
And a sky like a pig's backside, an utter lack of attention
But right now you are dumb
And I love your stupidity
The blind mirror of it. I look in
And find no face but my own, and you think that's funny
It is good for me
To have you grab my nose, a ladder rung
One day you may touch what's wrong
The small skulls, the smashed blue hills, the godawful hush
Till then your smiles are found money
