Black Lips - Locust lyrics
[Black Lips - Locust lyrics]
You kept the linen clean but you
Couldn't keep the dirt off me
Pourin' seconds from a broken clock
Leavin' hours piled up on the floor
I might feel the sun but the
Sun certainly won't feel me
My hands are icy cold but
Everythin' they touch feel heat
Everybody knows that while I'm passin' by
The concrete starts to shake
I'm a locust in the wind
Now there's nothin' where I've been
Just a feelin' left behind
Stole the bell right off the ship so
They're never gonna hear it ring
Passengers will be asleep while the pipes
Are ripped from under the sink
I'm never goin' to be the one who's
Never been lost in the sea
I'd rather eat the soap that was meant
To wash the dirt from me
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The forest comes awake
Now I'm talkin' to the wind
Both askin' where we've been
And what's been left behind
I might feel the sun but the
Sun certainly won't feel me
My hands are icy cold but
Everythin' they touch feel heat
You kept the linen clean but you
Couldn't keep the dirt off me
I'd rather eat the soap that was
Meant to keep me clean
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The concrete starts to shake
I'm a locust in the wind
Now there's nothin' where I've been
Just a feelin' left behind
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The forest comes awake
Now I'm talkin' to the wind
Both askin' where we've been
And what been left behind
Couldn't keep the dirt off me
Pourin' seconds from a broken clock
Leavin' hours piled up on the floor
I might feel the sun but the
Sun certainly won't feel me
My hands are icy cold but
Everythin' they touch feel heat
Everybody knows that while I'm passin' by
The concrete starts to shake
I'm a locust in the wind
Now there's nothin' where I've been
Just a feelin' left behind
Stole the bell right off the ship so
They're never gonna hear it ring
Passengers will be asleep while the pipes
Are ripped from under the sink
I'm never goin' to be the one who's
Never been lost in the sea
I'd rather eat the soap that was meant
To wash the dirt from me
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The forest comes awake
Now I'm talkin' to the wind
Both askin' where we've been
And what's been left behind
I might feel the sun but the
Sun certainly won't feel me
My hands are icy cold but
Everythin' they touch feel heat
You kept the linen clean but you
Couldn't keep the dirt off me
I'd rather eat the soap that was
Meant to keep me clean
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The concrete starts to shake
I'm a locust in the wind
Now there's nothin' where I've been
Just a feelin' left behind
Everybody knows while I'm passin' by
The forest comes awake
Now I'm talkin' to the wind
Both askin' where we've been
And what been left behind
