Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Curtains drawn at dawn
I hang my coat
I yawn (how polite…)
They pass the coffee round
I taste the steam
Not the cup
Their pulsing hands
Lay papers on the table
They laugh
They plan
They trust the quiet neighbor
[Chorus]
Raymond in the morning room
Smiling in a borrowed gloom
Fangs behind a porcelain grin
Holding back the hunger in
Raymond in the morning light
Fighting what he is each night
Living like a gentle friend
Praying that the day won’t end
[Verse 2]
They ask about my dreams
I say I barely sleep
I speak of fields and streams
(only graves I keep…)
I wash the scarlet from my sleeves
In a bathroom down the hall
Every mirror gives me nothing
So I study every wall
[Chorus]
Raymond in the morning room
Pouring sugar
Stirring doom
Jokes and jam and trembling hands
Hiding centuries in plans
Raymond in the morning light
Nods along to small delights
Every heartbeat in his ear
Every heartbeat he must fear
[Bridge]
O merciful sun
Why do you spare me?
Lock me in linen and light
Tie my thirst to a chair
Let me listen to their breathing
And pretend I do not care (ah…)
[Chorus]
Raymond in the morning room
Living as their quiet wound
Houseplants
Letters
Sunday bread
Names he lists inside his head
Raymond in the fading light
Coat and collar
Sharp as night
When the first star cuts the sky
He will kiss their world goodbye
