La Dispute - FULTON STREET II lyrics
[La Dispute - FULTON STREET II lyrics]
I had a vision of snow fall into footprints
I watched the winter whip
And bury everything
Off in the distance
Your figure drifting in mist
On pilgrimage and all alone
You were like a stone thrown in a river
Or in your pocket i was the water
And I watched you tremble down into nothing
Sink like an anchor you're failing
A phantom a break in the bone
I will be the one who chases
You out in the snow go where you tunnel down
And the trouble starts
I will follow you out and
Carry all the pain away
I will be the one who follows
You out in the flow
Go if the water swells drags you under
Know I will swallow it whole and
Carry all the pain away
Nights I wandered out head buried in my coat
Snow blowing in everything thick like smoke
I could feel the cold growing
How weather makes you hold things tight
On the way to buy us wine
Nights afraid to die
There is that phantom path carved
In ghost steps sloped down
To a pond somehow still half-frozen
The evidence of struggle again
So many years ago
Our first turn out to Lowell from home
The image returns to me again and again
(When will it leave?)
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
And the roof beams to bend
And give way under weight
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
And the roof beams to bend
And the whole thing to break
Chasing your pain
You were like a chain swung in anger
You're anxious you're shaking
I know the shape of your pain
Painted with the name on your shoulder blade
Never gets older or wakes
And I know the way down highways through Ada
To places you waited for
Friends who can't show
And I know your dreams of opening caskets
You shake in the mattress you shake in the
I watched the winter whip
And bury everything
Off in the distance
Your figure drifting in mist
On pilgrimage and all alone
You were like a stone thrown in a river
Or in your pocket i was the water
And I watched you tremble down into nothing
Sink like an anchor you're failing
A phantom a break in the bone
I will be the one who chases
You out in the snow go where you tunnel down
And the trouble starts
I will follow you out and
Carry all the pain away
I will be the one who follows
You out in the flow
Go if the water swells drags you under
Know I will swallow it whole and
Carry all the pain away
Nights I wandered out head buried in my coat
Snow blowing in everything thick like smoke
I could feel the cold growing
How weather makes you hold things tight
On the way to buy us wine
Nights afraid to die
There is that phantom path carved
In ghost steps sloped down
To a pond somehow still half-frozen
The evidence of struggle again
So many years ago
Our first turn out to Lowell from home
The image returns to me again and again
(When will it leave?)
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
And the roof beams to bend
And give way under weight
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
I was waiting for the anger to change
And the roof beams to bend
And the whole thing to break
Chasing your pain
You were like a chain swung in anger
You're anxious you're shaking
I know the shape of your pain
Painted with the name on your shoulder blade
Never gets older or wakes
And I know the way down highways through Ada
To places you waited for
Friends who can't show
And I know your dreams of opening caskets
You shake in the mattress you shake in the
