Laura Stevenson - Landslide Song/The Dig lyrics
[Laura Stevenson - Landslide Song/The Dig lyrics]
And went the water
Past the tufts, tufts, tufts
Snapping trees like fingers easy as all
Down it comes now prepare yourself
The black is gushing
Up, up, up to the windows
Curtains and the cushions
Things are getting so untidy
Hush hush hush, if you scream then everyone
Will start screaming numb, numb
Numb frozen limbs and frozen bottoms hold you
Still enough 'til you breathe in three
Times it will take you up, up
Up high above your shoes and socks now
Things are getting so untidy
Broken are the backs of the shovel bearers
Smoking on their breaks
Cutting conversations to TV shows
And places that they long to go
Long before the dig began
And long before the dig is over
