"Peasants" lyrics
"Peasants"
Well, I've been praying on my knees
And my eyes are dirty pages on the street
And that bee sting on your heart
Won't stop the rain from coming down
Tonight, in this house, we drown
As I watch the stars align
And I keep the moon by my side
And as the fever starts to break
I'll dig a hole for you
And it would bury us
While we turn into dust
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
Well, I've been digging up the bones
And your body is a dirty ant hill on the lawn
And I swear to God
You are my iron light
And I am your dark tonight
As I watch the stars align
And I keep the moon by my side
And as the fever starts to break
I'll dig a hole for you
And it would bury us
And we'll turn into dust
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God
On the white wings of God

You were far away
And I
Didn't ask you "Why?"
What could I say?
I was far away
You just walked away
And I just watched you
What could I say?
How close am I
To losing you?
Tonight
You just...
Andrew Belle - "Black Bear" Help, help
I’m drowning
In the sea where I found you
The kerosene in your skin
The chemistry that I’m bound to
Picture me on an ocean
In a chest that I hollow
I picture you in slow motion
Somewhere...
Radical Face - "The Mute" Well, as a child I mostly spoke inside my head
I had conversations with the clouds, the dogs, the dead
And they thought me broken, that my tongue was coated lead
But I just couldn't make my words...
Sir Sly - "Too Far Gone" I'm stuck inside of these lines I drew
I didn't speak it but I always knew
That I was too far gone
Can you ever be too far gone?
Never mind the things I said before
I overstated and I shouldn't have...
