Laura Veirs - Lake swimming
Tekst :
Lake swimming
Shucking free our deadened selves
Like snakes and corn do
Our bodies tore off swimming suits
And all the old notions
The cold ocean far away
Enter the sun
Marching like a matador
Flashing her yellow velvet suit
Throwing a red cape on the sky
Old butterfly
I’ll dance with you
Though our wings may crumble
We can float like ash
Broken but the edges still shine
Lake swimming
Shucking free our deadened selves
Like snakes and corn do
Our bodies tore off swimming suits
And all the old notions
The cold ocean far away
Laura Veirs - Wandering kind
Tekst :
A strange July, storm came down
From the north and pulled out the salt
And it tore out the leaves
From the pear tree and my canopy
In the twigs and the bugs of sow
I knew somehow I was free
I held a stone above my bones
I was shaking
In the blue stained glass church
You gathered up my heart
Sauntered together all the tiny shattered parts
I said, all I can see in front of me is the armpit of a crow
You closed the ring and opened the door
And ran into the summer yard
Cause the sun s been known to shine
On our wandering kind
Yeah, the sun s been known to shine
On our wandering kind
(to shine)
Clogging on her wooden board
The tattooed girl took up her swords
And plunged them down deep into the earth
A twinkling tie filled up her eyes
And poured out to the lawn
A made a raft of the scraps from her skirt
And sailed til dawn
Cause the sun s been known to shine
On our wandering kind
(to shine)
Yeah, the sun s been known to shine
On our wandering kind
(to shine)
Our wandering kind
Laura Veirs - Magnetized
Tekst :
Slain
By your zirconium smile
I was slain
By your olivine eyes
Slain
I was lying in piles
Hoping shovels would cast me
Furnaces burn everlasting
Black tattoos of you onto me
Furnaces burn everlasting
Black tattoos
Burn
Brand my memory
Black
A tattoo of you
Wash
Me with your mouth
Brackish bright water from your eyes
I’ll homing pigeon fly
To hover by your window white and shy
Homing pigeon fly
To hover by
Spill
My ashes to the wind
Ghosts
Can gather what they’ve found
Now
We can struggle in the web
We can struggle
With white spider stars coming down
And night blowing black from the ground…
Inne utwory
Losowe utwory
Waking up in the morning, lying next to you
I stare at you and I listen to you breathe
I can t imagine respending my life with someone else
I ve gotta find the reasons why my heart makes me believe
If you wanna know...
Narkotyki rozpierdoliły głowy moim znajomym
Niektórzy się podnieśli, niektórzy nie ooo
Na rogu hot dog śmierdzi gównem
Kiedy jest gorąco paruje cały smród,
Smród stoi w mieście mdli mnie, rozkłada mi łeb.
Ty jesteś mój narkotyk, lecz raczej ciężki
Miękkie narkotyki ciągle nowe...
New boy in the neighborhood
Lives down stairs and it s understood.
He s there just to take good care of me.
Like he s one of the family.
Charles in charge of
Our days and our nights.
Charles in charge of
Our wrongs and our rights.
So I say
I want Charles in charge of me.
Charles,...
Lay my bones
At the feet of the ministry
I need the guilt and the company
I need the chance to be judged
And then long forgotten
Lately I just can t shake it
I count the days in seconds and minutes
Hours and hours are subtle as shards of glass
In the skin
So lay with me
I could...
A strange July, storm came down
From the north and pulled out the salt
And it tore out the leaves
From the pear tree and my canopy
In the twigs and the bugs of sow
I knew somehow I was free
I held a stone above my bones
