Noun In The Shade Lyrics

You need not expect me any more
Drag my body like a razor, ask myself what for
Back in class I'm told to seek to spend
Eternity resting on the tip of your demands

I found a poison bark
Beneath your tree
Slept in the shaded leaf

Tried the trick, entitled taste for me
Whispering spring to the meadow, fall into the sea
When you were a child tucked in the fold
I'm a foolish traveler who gave it up for gold

I found a poison bark
Beneath your tree
Slept in the shaded leaf

I found a poison bark
Beneath your tree
Slept in the shaded leaf

I'll swim with sweethearts
I'm in the gallows
Heading all the footnotes in your mind
Sing a song so sweet
And see what follows If I'm too slow I'm left behind
Maybe it's been obvious to you
Talking to the holy ghost, both of us are confused
Somehow gotten swallowed in the night
I'm a foolish traveler, I just can't get it right

I found a poison bark
Beneath your tree
Slept in the shaded leaf

I found a poison bark
Beneath your tree
Slept in the shaded leaf

I'll swim with sweethearts
I'm in the gallows
Heading all the footnotes in your mind
Sing a song so sweet
And see what follows
If I'm too slow I'm left behind

I'll swim with sweethearts
I'm in the gallows
Heading all the footnotes in your mind
Sing a song so sweet
And see what follows
If I'm too slow I'm left behind
