Old Ceremony, The

Day That I Was Born
I could let go of the will tonight And surrender to the gears and the motors I set all in motion until they find A splintery bed on which to lie I can almost smell your hair tonight The hypnotic poison a stand liar I water and set you out in the sun But you closed your pedals to everyone We built to rickety bridge of size And we nestled and watched as the rivers rise For every new creature an old one dies And washes out into the foamy skies [Chorus] 'Cause you knew the poetry I just knew the poem You woke up next to me The day that I was born We traded water and greens and blues And you clumped to my neck as if you knew That we watch this scene from the basement wall And our faces would stutter and rise and fall SongtexteAnd I held a rob in up to my chest But his heartbeats so loud out of fear I guess So I let it go a lesson learned Now I haunt my window for it's return [Chorus x2] 'Cause you knew the poetry I just knew the poem You woke up next to me The day that I was born Well there's only so much that I can say Without stealing the words from your dog year pages 'Cause I only started to bend my spines The ghost of your fingertips lawn my lines Aus Songtexte Mania
