Silver Sun Lyrics - Kristin Hersh

He leaves suspiciously 

As panic enters 

Geography for beginners 

Barter for the rest of your life 

Feeling wasted comes in waves 

Orient harder 

Bend your molten face 

To smile at a stranger 

How much for a life you don't despise? 

Tons and a shining silver sun 

Don't you wish you hadn't gone 

I am starting to sometimes 

I wish you were here 

Only sweetness that's all 

To shake off the bitter 

So I make you toothless well 

Live on water 

Water for a thirst you can't fight 

Precious stones and precious bodies 

Have you been savaged by love bites 

How much for a life you don't despise 

Tons and a shining silver sun 

Don't you wish you hadn't gone 

I am starting to sometimes 

I wish you were here 

Long underrated silver sun 

Don't you wish we hadn't gone 

We were starting to see a beautiful mirror
