Lyrics Triple Spiral - Bright Eyes
I
loved
a
Triple
Spiral,
my
maiden-mother-crone
I
folded
my
devotion
into
an
origami
rose
Stood
at
her
Tiffany
window,
she
said
to
look
below
Could
I
see
the
town
was
burning?
Could
I
see
the
broken
prison?
Could
I
see
that
it
was
time
for
me
to
go?
They
looted
the
museum
and
took
all
that
they
could
hold
A
motorcade
of
flatbed
trucks
made
off
with
quite
a
haul
That′s
when
I
heard
someone
shout,
"In
with
the
new!
Out
with
the
old!"
A
dusty
box
of
letters
A
rusting
suit
of
armor
A
casket
made
of
fourteen
karat
gold
That's
the
problem
No
sense
of
time
She
is
shaped
just
like
an
hourglass
there
laying
on
her
side
I
loved
you
Triple
Spiral–father,
son
and
ghost
But
you
left
me
in
my
darkest
hour
when
I
needed
you,
When
I
needed
you
Now
that
the
dream
is
over
I
want
it
to
be
known
That
I
never
saw
it
coming
Through
my
little
human
prism
How
sad
it
is
to
know
I′m
in
control
That's
the
problem
An
empty
sky
I
fill
it
up
with
everything
that
is
missing
from
my
life
Where
did
you
come
from?
You
fated
sign
Spinning
through
the
centuries
expanding
all
the
time
Three
worlds
at
once
that
blend
together
Three
times
I
cried
for
us
but
I
felt
better
then
I
loved
you
Triple
Spiral,
my
maiden-mother-crone
You
found
me
in
this
fallow
state,
my
mind
was
off
and
stowed
I
heard
your
strange
commotion
and
wished
I
could
go
home
To
live
a
little
longer
A
full
Indian
summer
Long
enough
to
carve
you
into
stone
