Lyrics
Threads
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.
Your personal pariah is in a wool cap
The mirror flakes away take a long nap
Watching the threads disintegrate
Like the krishna beads in a lockbox safe
Watching the threads disintegrate
Like the krishna beads in a lockbox safe
Watching the threads disintegrate
Crumbling like the lawn art you made
Oh lawn art you made
Oh lawn art you made
Oh lawn art you made
I was crumbling like the lawn art that you made
Hard brown bread cut with a circular saw
Shallow rattling breath with a wee cough
Watching the threads disintegrate
Foisted into the middle ages
Watching the threads disintegrate
Foisted into the middle ages
Watching the threads disintegrate
Remain in the ruckus and you will get scraped
Oh you will get scraped
Oh you will get scraped
Oh you will get scraped
If you remain in the ruckus and you will get scraped
