Bright Eyes - When the Curious Girl Realizes She is Under Glass lyrics

Tomorrow when I wake up
I'm finding my brother
And I'm making him take me
Back down to the water
That lake where we sailed and
We laughed with our father
I will not desert him i will not desert him

No matter how I may wish
For a coffin so clean
Or these trees to undress all
Their leaves onto me
I put my face in the dirt
And then finally I see
The sky that has been avoiding me

And I started this letter
I'm gonna send it to Ruba
Be blessed by her eyes on
The Gulf Coast of Florida
With her feet in the sand and
One hand on her swimsuit
She will recite the prayer of my pen

Saying "Time take us forward
Relief from this longing
They can land that plane on my heart
I don't care just give me November
The warmth of a whisper
In the freezing darkness of my room"

But no matter what I would
Do in attempt to replace
All these pills that I take
Trying to balance my brain
I've seen the curious girl with
That look on her face
So surprised she stares out
From her display case
