"Fisher Of Men" lyrics
"Fisher Of Men"
He tied a feather to the hook for to get you to look
And by the time you know what took you, you already took
He's got a line in the water, he's a fisher of men
And he put the thorns on the rose for to get you to bleed
And by the time you know what stuck you, the pain's in deep
He's got a line in the water, he's a fisher of men
He's got a lot on the line, he's a fisher of men
He's a fisher of men
He's as wise as a prize fighter
He's like a soul miner
Mining souls on down the great divide
Oh, the fisher of men
Fisher of men
He's got a lot on the line
And he put his name in my verses and his name in the hook
Before I knew what I was cooking, it was already cooked
He's got a line in the water, he's a fisher of men
And he put his name in my chorus in the dark before the dawn
So that in my hour of weakness, I'd remember it's his song
He's got a line in the water, he's a fisher of men
He's got a lot on the line, he's a fisher of men
He's a fisher of men
He's as wise as a prize fighter
He's like a soul miner
Mining souls on down the great divide
Always a fisher of men
Fisher of men
He's got a lot on the line

The Decemberists - "Sonnet" Guido, I wish that you and Lapo and I
Could be taken by magic and placed in a boat
Where every rising swell
Would sweep us at our will across the sky
Then tempest never, or weather dire
Could ever...
Fruit Bats - "Feather Bed" Baby open wide you got the light in you
Can't gimme too much love
I always really thought you never gave enough
But now there's too much love
But can't give too much love
Babe I'll be the blanket...
Blind Pilot - "Two Towns from Me" Remember the world
Living in the half
That you cannot see
Been walking a line
The thinning tide
And stepping in too deep
Watching water thread my sleeve
What did I pull from underneath
We'll tie it...
Fleet Foxes - "Battery Kinzie" I woke up one morning
All my fingers rotten
I woke up a dying man without a chance
I came to your window
Threw a stone and waited
At the door a stranger stood
The stranger's voice said nothing good...
