Lyrics
A small something to put you to sleep
A small gesture or token meant to help you fall asleep.
A string of telephone calls
A series of phone calls that you direct towards your gods, possibly seeking guidance or solace.
That you make to your gods
These calls ring metaphorically within your body, suggesting a personal and internal connection.
Ring inside the body
Observing the Macy's parade from a ship's helm in your hometown.
We watched the Macy's parade
A reminiscence of a shared picture in the exact location from a past dream.
From the helm of a ship
Singing a nonsensical and rhythmic refrain (la la la la).
In your home city
An acknowledgment of a difficult situation, emphasizing its severity.
You had a picture of us
Just when things are going well, the situation takes a turn for the worse.
In the same exact spot
Having consumed one bottle of a substance, causing its effects to disappear.
That you took in my last dream
A description of the discomfort or unease settling in your mind.

You just get going good
Describing the progress in a negative light, implying setbacks or challenges.
One bottle down and gone
Having consumed one bottle and feeling its effects disappear.
The poor, warm simmering in your head
Feeling the warmth of poverty or hardship settling in the mind.
My friend
Repeating the expression of sympathy for someone facing high costs for forgiveness.
For whom forgiveness costs a lot

Am I not penitent?
