Deer Head
Dad brought the rock down on its head, down on its head
Deer head
Splitting its skull (deer skull) open in half
Open
And the blood shone like VHS tape out of its brain and severed leg
It was the right thing to do
Brought down that rock just like my daddy showed me
Said now there's a quiet in you
Came with the harmers, a weird sad place
Where now I find a quiet in me too
Oh lay me down on my childhood bed, thoroughly wild and without regret
Understood pain was just thing our daddies knew
And if purity were quantified divide it in half each year you're alive
And I was happier before
Happier before
Happier, happier
