Okkervil River - Shelter Song lyrics
[Okkervil River - Shelter Song lyrics]
Cold friend, scared animal
And I could barely believe it myself
You've got a home
Starving to death out by the ocean wall
Shouts in the mist scuffling footsteps
I know you think you're all by yourself
All by yourself you're not alone
I thought that nobody loved me at ten
Sad kid, scared animal
A nasty word, and I'm back there again
Can't let it go
Holding my breath
Up in the church house hall
I had my strength i had my skin and bones
I thought that I was all by myself
All by myself
But I was wrong never alone
And now I'm home uh huh
Uh huh (Sad kid, scared animal)
Uh huh take a walk
