You wake up in the morning feeling gloriously alive
With the firm conviction that the problems that disturbed you in the past
Will now disappear disappear disappear
Into the midnight of your consciousness

I went down to the basement
To check up on the sour mash
I looked down to the nonreactive ceramic tu
It was bubbling
I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down
I saw the dust devils swarming around
Incoming sun beams cut them apart
And I watched a shadow pass across my heart
You were upstairs in the kitchen with your head against the sink
Trying to cool down
Trying to cool down

I know you don't believe me but I could hear you breathing
I looked into the tub and there the mixture was seething
With new life
New life all around
I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down
You were upstairs in the kitchen with your head against the sink
Trying to cool down
Trying to cool down
Yeah
