lyrics

I feel like, I'm living in a coma
I have the sad taste of trees in my mouth
The old folks remember, when I was young I saw their sadness as a monster
I didn't hear it cry but I could see its shoulders shake, shadow puppets could be laughing
But since I was five I've caught it's tears in a penny jar

And in the back seat
I sleep and wake with the shakes
You held me like a baby tree
Your flood sad eyes just rained on me

I feel like a somnambulist or something, but in dreams I don't walk with you
Roy Orbison was a liar but, I won't lie to you.. I'm a monster
And although I'm not made of snow I'm a abominable?
As a child I was read Raymond Briggs
I can't fly, but if I could there would be less tracks, left in the snow
I remember you though I'm a Wendigo
Covered in white matted fur, your name on my eyelids
But all you see in my eyes is a longing, for venison...
And I got these claws when I wake in the woods, all the snow stained red and I've got splintered fingers, from picking beautiful girls out my teeth, with a tree branch

Will you, remember me?
My loving family...
You held me like a baby tree
Your flood sad eyes just rained on me

And in the back row
I sleep and wake with the shakes
You held me like a baby tree
With dirty hands you buried me

My heart is filled with
Nothing but, sawdust confetti
But I will lift your sweetest hearts
Into the rafters

Some hearts are bullshit / Some hearts are heaven sent / Some hearts are true
