The Valley

from Night Library Demos by dzuls

lyrics

Get about
You catch your breath; your head is in the clouds
Try to figure out
How to get the boys to talk about you now
How long can you live in the valley?
How long can you stand the cold?
The broken mannequin of your image
The bad wax figure of your soul

Taken out
Your faulty heart, an organ in a ghost town
Breaking down
How to get the stains from your evening gown
How long can you live in the valley?
How long can you stand the cold?
The broken mannequin of your image
The bad wax figure of your soul

Your back to the beat,
You’re out on the street
Locked out of the scene
You’re flabby Chablis
More shabby than chic
A rag magazine
Your smile’s too sweet
A cat you can’t see
A strange yellow green
And the record machine
Keeps spinning
And spinning

Cast about
Your cry is just a shallow vowel sound
Hollowed out
Your name is just another common noun
How long can you live in the valley?
How long can you stand the cold?
The broken mannequin of your image
The bad wax figure of your soul

If you crane your neck just right—if darkness lifts the diamond kite—if bears decamp and the spider spins—you just might hear dzuls in the desert wind at night.
