gashcat - lady of the ark lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
lady of the ark, i think i found a part
i think i found a piece of what you used to be
dozing in the back of a funeral car
and tangled in the blankets of your memory

[pre-chorus]
oh why, why did i waste you?
if i’d have felt that [???]
i couldn’t save you
plunging to the earth, the sweetest cannonball

oh why, why did i know you?
how did i know you would go in the end?
fell out of the sky you told me:
“baby i’ll be gone, but when i’m back again we’ll try.”

[chorus]
try
try
try

[verse 2]
lady of the ark, i think you were the start
i think you were the key with which his heart was closed
not his only secret, not his only weakness
i found him at the party feeling through her clothes

[pre-chorus]
he cried, cried, “i’m wasted!”
and he couldn’t look you straight in the mouth
but all that time he’d take it
even though he didn’t watch the words come out

oh why, why did you leave me?
why did you think it would rip me apart?
when we were always bleeding
inward towards the spirit where the soul departs the mind

[chorus]
mind
mind
mind

[bridge]
and i can see your face now
tripping sick with your ear to the wall
you can’t find the way down, my lady
my lady
’til you fall

[chorus]
fall
fall
fall

[verse 3]
strange, prodigal woman, she can’t see it coming
bats her eyes at everybody one by one
and though she’s moving faster, still he’s blowing past her
naked with his eye toward the morning sun

[pre-chorus]
you’re wild, wild i’ve seen it
and he left you sick when you loved him the most
so now you’re dead, defeated
torn between the devil and the holy ghost

swing low, low sweet heathen
swing for the wretch and the rock and roll kids
who roam this earth repeating
all this sin until this wicked world makes sense in time

[chorus]
time
time
time
