That Last Gleam (Song A Day #1698) songadaymann 2013-08-30 | http://jonathanmann.netThat Last GleamSong A Day #1698The laws of all the jungles couldn't keep my heart from singingI may not be the strongest, and I am not always bringingOrchestras to bear down on this process I've createdAnd sometimes I am tired and there are some times I hate itAnd someone out there is doing this much betterFollowing the path laid out for them down to the letterAnd sometimes I am whimpering in the corner with balloonsFalling down a black hole and licking all my woundsAnd when I read a good book, I want to write a novelI see a movie that speaks to me I get on my knees and grovelI watch a play or play a game, I want to make those tooI'm rafting down a river straight out into the blueNo amount of splendor and no amount of spiteNothing I do will last beyond that last gleam of twilightNo amount of pressure and no amount of stressNo matter how full my heart becomes no matter how obsessed But I will keep goingAt least until I can't anymoreDuck face in the mirror and cat face on the lawnMy gold watch in the toilet, my diamond ring was pawnedThe gates come crashing down around me and I am left aloneBig fish bowls full of hype so overblownTime is like a mattress that curls in the springsLegs that walk and run and dance and mouths that sigh and singBreak another piece off that old wood cherry treeit's been there since forever, and will be there after meThey say that every atom inside me is from the starsAnd every bit of CO2 released from carsAnd every piece of plastic and each vinyl record spinningYou can bet against the house but the house is always winningJump into the deep end and see if you can swimI drowned once and was reborn purged of all my sinsLittle ukuleles and big old upright bassesShine down on me from the moon and in the friendly smiling faces FOLLOW me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/songadaymannLIKE me on Facebook:http://www.facebook.com/songadaymannCALL my Google Voice #:(510) 402-6081SEND me stuff the old fashioned way:Jonathan Mann144 N. 7th St. PMB 128Brooklyn, NY 11249FOLLOW me on SoundCloud:http://soundcloud.com/jonathanmannFOLLOW me on Instagram: My username is jonathanmannBE on my mailing list: http://tinyletter.com/jonathanmannDO what they do on Google+: http://bit.ly/mannplusLISTEN to my podcast:http://www.alwaysmaking.us
