kyle craft - lady of the ark lyrics

Loading...

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

so why, why did i waste you?
if i’d have felt that love come to fall
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.”

try!
try!
try!

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

and 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

mind!
mind!
mind!

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

so fall!
fall!

oh 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

but you’re wild, wild i’ve seen it
and he left you sick when you loved him the most
so now you’re done, 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

time!
time!
time!
