Lyrics
I Fell
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.
There's a mountain north of Winnipeg
Buried under ice
And as the black clouds roll above
White pines crack like glass
Walking under those swaying trees
Branches bowed with ice
I wanted one to fall on me
To pin me in the snow
That silver forest reminded me of you
And how I kissed you
And I fell down to the bottom of a well
Down a dirt road west of El Paso
Behind a burning barn
I stumbled on a horse's bone
Bleaching in the sand
But when I reached down to touch the skull
Underneath my hand
A stream of orange lizards poured out
From the bone-white mouth
That empty mouth reminded me of you
And how I kissed you
And I fell down to the bottom of a well
