joanna newsom - en gallop! (walnut whales version) lyrics

Loading...

this place is damp and ghostly
i am already gone
and the halls were lined
with the disembodied and the dustly wings
which fell from flesh gasplessly

and i go where the trees are
and i walk from a higher education
(for now, and for hire)

it beats me, but i do not know
it beats me, but i do not know
it beats me, but i do not know
i do not know
palaces and stormclouds
the rough, straggly sage, and the smoke
and the way it will all come together
(in quietness, in time)

b+tch, you laws of property
b+tch, you free economy
b+tch, you unending afterthoughts
you could’ve told me before —

never get so attached to a poem
you forget truth that lacks lyricism;
never draw so close to the heat
that you forget that you must eat

in order to make the music
seems i must break so many things
turn over like bracken and sea+shrapnel
grazed by the tongue of a beetle+green sea

let each note be
a full+bodied song:
enough fingers
enough toes
skin to cover the rich, bl++dy beat
enough belly
enough feet
