Sparklehorse - More Yellow Birds lyrics
[Sparklehorse - More Yellow Birds lyrics]
Out on the coast, or rushed into the brine
You left your rings on the shoreline
So you wouldn't lose them
Swimming in the shallows
A plastic shovel soft sweaty
Children far from home
On vacation not unlike your very own
And the Captain Howdy lit, upon my shoulder
And he left me with sulfur
And rooms full of headaches
I fell in with snakes
And the poison ranks of strangers
Please send me more yellow birds
For the dim interior
Will my pony recognize my voice in hell?
Will he still be blind or
Do they go by smell?
Will you promise me not to
Rest me out at sea?
But on a fiery river boat that's rickety
I'll never find my pony
Along the rolling swells
A muddy river or a lake would do me well
With hints of amber sundowns
And muted thunderstorms
A sunken barge's horns with
The cold rusty bells
