On The Starry Banks
MASON JENNINGS · Wild Dark Metal 2016 · Track 08 of 08
Standing in command A hatchet in my hand Choppin' up the dining room table I need the wood to make A boat that's gonna take me Away from you while I'm still able
The anger and deceit We tried so hard to beat Kept stalking us like an animal The landscape of our lives Transformed before our eyes To it became some kind a jungle With a river running through River running through Between me and you
On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you I lost you
A movie hits the screen Projector stays unseen The audience erupts into laughter Meanwhile across my brain A darkened movie is playing A commercial and artistic disaster A falcon sees the hare From way up in the air And turns its body into a hammer Somewhere high above Something without love Is bearing down on me in that manner I lost you I lost you I lost you
On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you On the starry banks On the starry banks On the starry banks I lost you I lost you
