On a window ledge see a salty rose grow And that'll change your mind for free There's a hundred on the hill And none in the valley for me
It's quiet outside and jacky sings along As the chimes ring a sound of defeat There's a hundred on the hill And none in the valley for me
Now the moon breaks giant and safe and strong And she tries to keep her vision clean There's a hundred on the hill And cold love turnin' to steam
But I feel so protected And she feels so protected And together we're the perfect team Two automatic moments At the bottom of a glowing machine
I see a stone dove rising She's circling and rising And makin' all the women behave There's a hundred on the hill And they're takin' on the shape of a wave
And I know that the wishes hidden in her lungs Are the same ones people speak So she comes down slow And I give her my eyes and teeth
