Dry The River - No Rest lyrics

rate me

I used to be a king alone

Like Solomon or Rehoboam

And in the eaves, the Corvidae

Did jealous keep my picture frames

And everything did oxidate in place

But then you came, a single cell

With astrolabe and carousel

And algebra and symmetry

And none of this was lost on me

And I could see how still I'd been before

If I don't eat, I don't sleep at all

Like limbs in procession

Like so many birds

Stampeding like oxen

Our hearts are a herd

I loved you in the bed

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the bed

Did you see the light in my heart?

Did you see the sweat on my brow?

Did you see the fear in my heart?

Did you see me bleeding out?

I loved you in the bed

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the best way possible

I loved you in the bed
