lyrics

The house falls behind
Kids are the kind
Who grow up the poles
Who plug up the holes

Crows in the trees
Scream at the breeze
The sky is untrue
Crooked, unglued

It's simple
The things that I do
You'd bar your door too
It's simple
I lean hard on you
And I buy shoes

Toes in the shag
The pale bully brags
When he takes your heart down
You can't make a sound

It's simple
The things that I do
You'd bar your door too
It's simple
I lean hard on you
And I buy shoes

There is the grass
And the bones that you pick
And the salt that you lick
From the muse
Little tiger, you're everything new
And I buy shoes

The fever, the fence
And eight presidents
A square on a quilt
The blond hairs tilt

It's simple… It's simple…
