The Handsome Family Gravity song lyrics

There's a blind man who hears angels

He hears them whispering in sacked potatoes

And from the curly leaves of blooming pants

And in the winding tracks of crawling ants

He stands outside, under the sky

Listening to starlight drifting by

Because gravity is not the only force at work

In this world

Just like gypsy moths and firebugs

Circle around a shining bulb

The blind man dreams of drifting away

Into the darkness of outer space

And when he walks the city streets

He sprinkles the sidewalks with apple seeds

Because gravity is not the only force at work

In this world
