Lady Lamb - Arizona Lyrics

Ran through moonlit fields, having only sleep to lose
Bought too many plums, all but one began to bruise
The good one I ate and put the pit in my pocket
I think it fell out in a laundromat parking lot

The mountains were a thick molasses pouring slowly down the glass
Anna read a book in the last row
It looked good based on the back
And I left this earth for a split second but I don't know
Where the hell I went

Once I was eating a candy necklace
Through plastic vampire teeth
And climbing the shelf in the closet to hide
All my little secret things

Now the Aerostar seems so much smaller to me
When I was five I just wanted my feet to reach the floor like Lacey's

It was all so lovely
It was all so lovely
It was all so lovely
It wasn't all bad
Was it now, looking back?

Now everything around me is connected with string
All the things in my place and all the thoughts in my brain
And the string is taut and it's pulling on me
When I just want to be licking the batter over my childhood sink
The string is tangling me in

Still time is kindly turning over
I feel her drying my eyes
Time is kindly turning over
I feel her drying my eyes
While I wander the path backwards in the clean morning light
Trying to take my time

I never wanna be a bird collapsing beneath its own feather
I never wanna be a bird collapsing beneath its own feather
I never wanna be a bird collapsing beneath its own feather
I never wanna be a bird collapsing beneath its own feather, I

I never wanna be a bird collapsing beneath its own feather
