Water Liars - Dog Eaten lyrics

rate me

The smallest hours of the morning,

When I was busy dreaming

Of tender hearted girls

And the world without end

Forever and ever amen

My father was quietly taking

The money I was making

From the dog-eaten wallet

he gave me that year

Our blood is our own but it does what it pleases and there

Ain't much more to say

I'm alive on the highway

dead on arrival and that's no way to live this life

We lay on a mexican blanket

By carry ...and some roses

And I was an owl's ghost

and died on the side of the road

She laid her head on my shoulder

She nibbled on my ear lobe

and that was about all

My blood was my own, it done what it pleased to, and there

ain't much more to say

I'm alive on the highway

dead on arrivin' and that's no way to live this life
