My Coat
Lonesome Wyatt
I'd offer you my coat to wear while you walk home
But I know you like the breeze and how it flows underneath your wings
Maybe I'll walk with you just for a little while
Until our legs grow tired or until the wind grows stronger
Maybe you'll take my hand and warm it in your deep black feathers
For the wind shrieks outside, and the yellow bats stop their praying
It's safe in this house, won't you please just stay for a little while?
It's safe in this house, won't you please just stay for a little tea?
It's safe in this hell
