Emily Haines - The View lyrics

rate me

Who deserves a pretty tangle dream

Green hillside, hands inside hands

I lay before you like unclaimed land

You drove your bulldozer over

Wrote your name in the sand

I am new, watch the smoke move through

You've got this world, and the wine in your hand

So you drink it down, then you look at me

And offer me some watered down potion

Always one to let out devotion

Tell me you've been saving it for me

Who deserves a pretty tangle dream

Green hillside, hands inside hands

I lay before you like unclaimed land

Clear economic potential

You hung yourself in the sky frozen blue

My smile, a tattoo, you're happy with what you've created

Tell me to choose like some big suit tycoon

You used to shine, I can't find where you drink it down

Yeah look at me, offer me a watered down potion
