Fleet Foxes - Battery Kinzie lyrics

rate me

I woke up one morning

All my fingers rotten

I woke up a dying man without a chance

I came to your window

Threw a stone and waited

At the door a stranger stood

The stranger's voice said nothing good

I turned to walk the frozen ground alone

All the way home

Wide-eyed walker

Do not wander

Do not wander

Through the dawn

Both my eyes are fading

No light in the evening

Planted like a seed in sand and drowned in rain

Watch you for an hour

He kept you beneath him

He kept you on lock and key

He paid the wage you sent to me

And waste the day so idly alone

All the way home

Wide-eyed walker

Do not wander

Do not wander

Through the dawn

Wide-eyed walker

Do not wander

Do not wander

Through the dawn
