the purple barn with the jewish star

i saw it days ago
but for some reason
i thought of it now.
a pale purple barn, illuminating in a strange way
i just can't explain.
sort of like it was glass
and a light bulb was inside
a kind of glowing tone.
and on the barn door
was a giant, technicolor star of david.
i really didn't know what to say
or what to think about it
i just went riding by...

so then i always think of my brothers
they're stuck in my dreams
at the ages i last saw them.
and then i think
a heart doesn't have to break
just because of a relationship
it could be anything.
now i solely believe
no wait
i can actually see
it can be anything
anything at all.

so then i try to forget it all
because i hate the feeling of feeling sorry for myself
but who hasn't said that before?
i've always understood
i've done this to myself
so there i go again
its always a god dam loop around
and my dreams keep reminding me
of what i won't face
when i am awake.
