Tai Chi With My Dad

Lyrics

[Chorus] I drank coffee with the raven Who said empathy is painful But if you want to eat the fruit You gotta feel the rainfall I drank coffee with the raven They said don't you go complaining Put your feet against the pavement Your life is yours for the making [Verse] I've been on borrowed time since seven Unable to breathe A week hooked up to machines My dad trying to teach me tai chi The sundial informs me I'm too early For the universe's heat death But hopefully, I'm not too late To catch my breath and get my bike fixed [Chorus] I drank coffee with the ravеn Who said empathy is painful But if you want to eat the fruit You gotta feel thе rainfall I drank coffee with the raven They said don't you go complaining Put your feet against the pavement Your life is yours for the making [Verse] You looked at me through double-glazing Folded your voice to a gnostic text Do you get lonely sometimes? All I had left was to answer yes Every morning I've been talking all my secrets to the trees But lately, they don't return my whispers They ain't talking back to me [Chorus] I drank coffee with the raven Who said empathy is painful But if you want to eat the fruit You gotta feel the rainfall
