Mount Eerie - Origin lyrics
[Mount Eerie - Origin lyrics]
In the place where the animal went
Down to the water to die a swamp grew
And rotting stump wood their darkest homes
The people stopping only long enough
For day to come holding breaths
Waiting for morning among the bones
The white stag hung on a skeleton in the dusk
Skin surrendered bleached and withered
Broken and blown
A snag fallen into the mud
From the tallest tree no one seeing
A wooden antler decaying bone
In the mud in the mud
In the mud in the mud
In the mud
Down to the water to die a swamp grew
And rotting stump wood their darkest homes
The people stopping only long enough
For day to come holding breaths
Waiting for morning among the bones
The white stag hung on a skeleton in the dusk
Skin surrendered bleached and withered
Broken and blown
A snag fallen into the mud
From the tallest tree no one seeing
A wooden antler decaying bone
In the mud in the mud
In the mud in the mud
In the mud
