frank black
down by the beach today
not out of sight
just out of mind and memory
blind like the time before day
and after the night
the reverend he came to say
there is the white
and there is the house that claims him
beyond the waves of the bay
between water and light
i'm watching between the grey
for something not right
blind like the time after day
and before the night
before the night
and if i'm right
the urban blight
is not the problem
