Sync Different

Rat a tap tap;
Oh don’t you come and ask;
Am I a coming back?
The sky has gone black on us.

Don’t you weep –
Blame myself for these things
Known I was stronger than he –
And all you weaklings knew it.

Toodle loo;
They all abandoned you
One bruised and another screwed,
But I was the only loved.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
I was the only love.

Keep that bed.
Now brother, keep that rug.
Lord knows I was given so much –
And the devil keeps me fed.

On the wall. On the stove –
And in the blank book you draw –
There are signs of Hannah Leah
There are signs of our love.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
There are signs of love.

On a black, blue night
I go a wandering:
Out over Houston –
Along Avenue A.
Hannah Leah
On Avenue A.

Ku Klux Klan;
There’s evil in every man.
Come love her when you can –
And see about Hannah Leah.

Je me consume, pschitt,
Légères comme l’air
Des poussières se détachent
Et s’envolent dans le vent


Je m’évapore, pschitt,
Transparents invisibles
Les fluides de mon corps
S’élèvent dans le vent


Je m’évanouie, pschitt,
Les souvenirs s’effacent
Balayés par des jours

Que ne n’ai pas comptés


Je me retire, pschitt,
Du vieux monde furieux,
Insouciant invisible
Mon être s’éparpille


I am tapering out, pschhh
As light as air
Specks of dusk are released
And fly away in the wind


I am evaporating, pschhh
Transparent invisible
My body fluids
Are lifted in the wind

I am fainting, pschhh

Memories fade
Swept by the days
Which I haven’t counted

I am retiring pschhh
From this furious old world
Careless invisible
My being is dispersed
