"I Show You Myself As A Fruit Tree" lyrics
"I Show You Myself As A Fruit Tree"
I show you myself as a fruit tree
And you see the fort that could be made of that lumber
I dangle treats, and you, girl, walk under
I show you myself as a buoy
And you see an anchor
And I sing you my welcome
And you, you ship, are pulled under
You've got courage to knock on any door
Until you come to freeze at mine, it swung wide
Oh you coward, you're afraid
You coward, you're the anchor
You coward, you're the fortress
Oh you coward, you're afraid
Oh you coward, you're afraid
Oh you coward, let me in

Animal Collective - "Bluish" I'm getting lost in your curls
I'm drawing pictures on your skin,
So soft it twirls.
I like your looks when you get mean
I know I shouldn't say so but when you
Claw me like a cat, I'm beaming
I like...
Neutral Milk Hotel - "Engine" For I am an engine
And I'm rolling on
Through endless revisions to state what I mean
For sweetness alone who flew out through the window
And landed back home in a garden of green
You're riding...
Slowdive - "When The Sun Hits" Sweet thing, I watch you
Burn so fast it scares me
Mind games don't leave me
I've come so far, don't lose me
It matters where you are
As the sun hits, she'll be waiting
With her cool things and her...
(Sandy) Alex G - "Mis" My baby's alright
She just doesn't wanna see me tonight
Not for a minute
Not for a second
She says 'nothin here for you to make right'
I said 'I miss you so bad'
She says
I guess I don't need her...
Have A Nice Life - "Bloodhail" I feel the top of the roof come off
Kill everybody there
And I'm watching all the stars burn out
Trying to pretend that I care
But I didn't, no-one ever does
And I would, no-one ever will
Can't you...
