Okkervil River - For the Enemy lyrics
[Okkervil River - For the Enemy lyrics]
Oh, my enemy you've got company
You're not alone they're watching over me
While each town I pass fades as it folds
So in the night we might get lost
Lost in our fright so in the day
Softly we'll flow floating away
And it pours from the faucet's mouth
Like our fortune comes flowing out
Every word of which without a doubt
Will find us together
And together bring us down
They'll tie us down
In those fine thin threads run their knives
Up and down our skin until what was in
Will be out again above the sea
On that sunny ledge
As in the day softly we'll flow
Floating away and in the night
We will get lost lost in our fright
La la la la la la
And in the day softly we'll flow
Floating away
You're not alone they're watching over me
While each town I pass fades as it folds
So in the night we might get lost
Lost in our fright so in the day
Softly we'll flow floating away
And it pours from the faucet's mouth
Like our fortune comes flowing out
Every word of which without a doubt
Will find us together
And together bring us down
They'll tie us down
In those fine thin threads run their knives
Up and down our skin until what was in
Will be out again above the sea
On that sunny ledge
As in the day softly we'll flow
Floating away and in the night
We will get lost lost in our fright
La la la la la la
And in the day softly we'll flow
Floating away
