Lyrics
Atlanta
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.
I am a bumble bee, buzzing around in the hive
I need some company, I am barely alive
I am a crooked stack of bone
I was born this way and I will die alone
The snow covered mountain, the murder, the wedding gown
Were useful to me only as new words to write down
New words to write down
But in atlanta, in the shimmering rain
I was struck by a vision of your face again
The water running down the drain
These are the days that will drive me insane
There is so much pain outside these walls
Our parents are in hospital, our siblings are at war
No amount of tears could clean out my eyes
I am drinking my way back down to the floor
The wide mississippi, the whisky, the christian town
Were useful to me only as new words to write down
New words to write down
