Pile - Mr. Fish lyrics
[Pile - Mr. Fish lyrics]
My name is Darryl Fish and I
Changed when I turned 21
I used to feel the sun's warmth on my
Arms and now the sky just opens up
I pull the sheets over my head
And try hard to disappear
But in bed with me is a zoo
Of formless tenants that I wrestle with
They burrow into me and push
Out through my limbs they find their way out
Woke up in the middle of the
Ocean with everyone without faces
I only want this thing to drift and I'll cut
Any rope that's got an anchor on it
If you try to keep us here
I'll drill a hole at my feet if I need
Then the choir surrounds him and they push
Their song that always seems off
I wouldn't call them wrong
I just wouldn't ask them at all
I wonder if my fate has been taped
To my back because all your eyes
Look like they're reading me as forms I
Was supposed to have filled out
But, it's all paperwork I didn't need to have
Floats, hands behind head
Then he sees the choir pulling the ship
Off into the sky gaping open
And it's dark now but he wonders
When the sun comes back up
How it'll feel on his skin and
If it will at all
Changed when I turned 21
I used to feel the sun's warmth on my
Arms and now the sky just opens up
I pull the sheets over my head
And try hard to disappear
But in bed with me is a zoo
Of formless tenants that I wrestle with
They burrow into me and push
Out through my limbs they find their way out
Woke up in the middle of the
Ocean with everyone without faces
I only want this thing to drift and I'll cut
Any rope that's got an anchor on it
If you try to keep us here
I'll drill a hole at my feet if I need
Then the choir surrounds him and they push
Their song that always seems off
I wouldn't call them wrong
I just wouldn't ask them at all
I wonder if my fate has been taped
To my back because all your eyes
Look like they're reading me as forms I
Was supposed to have filled out
But, it's all paperwork I didn't need to have
Floats, hands behind head
Then he sees the choir pulling the ship
Off into the sky gaping open
And it's dark now but he wonders
When the sun comes back up
How it'll feel on his skin and
If it will at all
