"Peace Like Rivers" lyrics
"Peace Like Rivers"
You lay it out on the grass and
Tell me I'm gonna need new flowers soon
You let me up in the attics
Say how the sink will have the best view
But I do
But I do
You lift the veil on the woodpile
Tell me how it burns without asking first
You lick the blood off of your hand
Say how I won't have to worry I'm cursed
But I do
But I do
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We're right where we should be
That our prayers are received
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
Someone else can complete them
And when I'm down I can stay down
So I turn our talk back to work now
Tell you there are certain games I won't play
You on your hands and knees cooing
Can't pick a card any card so won't you
I do
I do
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We are right where we should be
That our prayers are received
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
Someone else came between us
And when I'm down I can stay down
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We are right where we should be
That our prayers are received
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
Someone else can complete them
Someone else can complete them
Someone else can complete them

Mal Blum - "Watercolors" I would have meant it if I'd said it
But I didn't think to say it at the time
And you never really said it

The Amazing Devil - "King" I'll keep the king
When you are gone away
Into darkness and howling, I'll keep him from drowning
As our boat is untethered from the dock

Keep him safe at bay

Vienna Teng - "Stray Italian Greyhound" Oh no not now
Please not now
I just settled into the glass half empty
Made myself at home
And so why now
Please not now

Harbors of my own

Sleep talking and walking around
