Peacebone

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

A peacebone got found in the dinosaur wing

Well I've been jumping all over, but my views were slowly shrinking

I was a jugular vein in a juggler's girl

I was supposedly leaking the most interesting colors

While half of my fingers are dipped in the sand

You progress in letters, but you're used to cooking broccoli

The other side of take out is mildew on rice

And an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

And just a few things are related to the old times

Then we did believe in magic and we did die

It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides

You're just an inside

Adjust your insides

You're just an inside

I bet the monster was happy when we made him a maze

'Cause he don't understand intentions and he just looks at your face

I bet the bubbles exploded to tickle the bath

And all the birds are very curious, all the fish were at the surface

With half of me waiting for myself to get calm

I'm like a pelican at red tide

I'm a corpse, I'm not a fisherman and

A blowout does not mean I will have a good night

'Cause an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

And just a few things are related to the old times

When we did believe in magic and we did die

It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides

You're just an inside

Adjust your insides

You're just an inside

Well I start in a hose and I'll end in a yard

When I feel like I'm stealing I can't keep myself from hearing God

Only the taste of your cooking can make me bow on the ground

It was the clouds that carved the mountains, it was the mountains that made the kids scream

Oh well she bore all her parts but

She never was found

You think: I'll carve a path through New York and be an artist

But are you anything?

Then you find out that you can't ask a baby to cry

And an obsession with the past is like a dead fly

And just a few things are related to the old times

When we did believe in magic and we did die

It's not my words that you should follow, it's your insides

You're just an inside

Adjust your insides

You're just an inside
