Cyclical Stillness

from This​/​That by Ok Housecat

/

lyrics

a cyclical stillness instills some fulfillment
until the still millions forget their forgiveness
beget, and then let this cyclical stillness unravel,
unwind, undone

that gavel's now tattered momentum is spun
from the knots, forgiven in stillness, undone
thread the needle, feel the steel eye that's begun
to keep watch with the sky where the clouds are now hung

a cyclical stillness instills some fulfillment
until the still millions forget their forgiveness
beget, and then let this cyclical stillness unravel,
unwind, undone


you cut me some slack just to cover your tracks
and once you've a knack for this undoing act
I collapse, then attack
I've been watching your backwards excursion
for lack of a version intact, but in fact,
what I like is aversion like that

yes, perhaps I'm the sum of the numbers exact
and relaxing in this undeniable fact
once the bags are all packed
and the dishes are stacked
and the porchlight realizes she loves the moth back
I'll finally step off this interminable track
and give up the day that you cut me some slack
