I'll Tell You (Rembrandt's Wedding Song)

by Yin Waster

on The Downward Swing (2018)

I'll tell you that I'm not worrying
As long as you don't ask why I'm not sleeping
I'll tell you that I'm still moving
As long as you don't ask why I'm not waking

I know you're busy orchestrating garden snakes
To push and pull over my grave
Letting the wintertime hang
Up and over, neighbors to our clothes

I'll tell you that I'm not shaking
As long as you don't stop to touch
I'll tell you that I'm not acting
As long as you don't stop to watch

You know I'm busy composing tree top scenes
To contrast the colors the background precedes
Allowing the winter to thaw from to blue to green
Underneath the clouds our clothes will be kept clean
