St. Vincent - Rattlesnake lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Follow the power-lines back from the road

No one around so I take off my clothes

Am I the only one in the only world?

I see the snake holes dotted in the sand

As if the Seurat painted the Rio Grande

Am I the only the one in the only world?

Sweating, sweating, no wind whipping behind me

Sweating, sweating, no one will ever find me

The only sound out here is my own breath

And my feet stuttering to make a path

Am I the only one in the only world?

Is that the wind finally picking up?

Is that a rattle sounding from the brush?

I'm not the only one in the only world

Running running running rattle behind me

Running running running no one will find me

Running running running rattle behind me

Running running running no one will ever find me

Sweating sweating seating rattle behind me

Running running running no one will ever find me

Sweating sweating sweating rattle behind me

Running running running no one will ever find me
