Jess Williamson - Native State lyrics

rate me

I thought I saw something real

In Barcelona, in Brooklyn

But I learned the power now, I’m yearning

Delusions

I remember Leonard Cohen and your tears

And how you used to cry

And you blame me, you blame me

For not asking you why

My darling, my baby, we have bones that will not break

And we’ll not change and we’ll not fade

No matter how many times I am replaced

Stay with her and stay away

Stay with her and stay away

Did you wanna ask

Your little lady

Why she’s crying

Changing her sheets

Why she’s lighting

The sage as you’re biking away

Well, I can promise you

She’s gonna sleep all day

Feel the weight

Your native state

Feel the weight

Your native state

I remember all the chiller names you had for disrespect

Your cruelty and cavalier way with regret

Was proved by the news of how you moved inside my life

Lady friend

My darling, my baby, I hope you’re more than just a pretty face

I wish you well, I wish you peace, I wish you real love someday

You’re beautiful and you’ll always need someone

But when you’re gone you’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm

You’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm

You’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm
