Tv On The Radio - Stork & Owl lyrics

rate me

<BR>

Faceless fall from this life and ah<br>

If you can't see the stars<br>

You've probably gone too far<br>

Like the voice that cried<br>

On the lonesome tide<br>

Like the wave was<br>

The only love it ever saw<br>

<br>

"What's this dying for"?<br>

Asks the Stork that soars<br>

With the Owl high above<br>

Canyons mighty walls<br>

Owl said "Death's a door<br>

That love walks through<br>

In and out, in and out<br>

Back and forth, back and forth"<br>

<br>

Turn from the fear<br>

Of the storms that might be<br>

Oh let it free<br>

That caged on fire thing<br>

Oh hold its hands<br>

It'll feel like lightening<br>

Oh in your arms safe<br>

From the storms<br>

<br>

Sky bends, the moon's dress's slung low,<br>

Slung low.<br>

Dogstar taught a dance<br>

It goes, it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes<br>

Arms out knees bend<br>

The motion flows<br>

Like the soft open petals<br>

Of a Jessica Rose<br>

<br>

So Sirius.<br>

So it falls apart<br>

It just reveals the perfect nothing.<br>

Of everything you are<br>

Of everything we are<br>

<br>

Candle of life<br>

Lights the blights and bruises<br>

Oh lay it down<br>

In the night<br>

Let it soothe this<br>

Oh hold its hands<br>

And we'll know what truth is<br>

Oh in its arms safe from the storms<br>

<BR><BR>
