Fishwives - Rummaging II Lyrics

Cold one morning and the sun didn't shine
I took my folly in the bag of mine
You waited for me though you're not the type
You waited for me, I was right on time

Time was a prison, it was keeping me still,
Though my feet were on the ground I was running down the hill
You waited for me with your crimson tie
Like a flag on your post, it was ripping the sky

Stray ye not, for nightfall blue
'Neath the trees will swallow you

You unpacked the picnic, said it's time to feast
On my dog-eared dreams and my memories
You started singing a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I ticked like a bomb

Stray ye not, for nightfall blue
'Neath the trees will swallow you

Rummaging, rummaging around in the dark for the right path
I trip, I confess, rip open my dress and you laugh
Now there's a change in your eyes
A beast in disguise, I depart, rise
Tree, star, sky, you-

Brief, clear morning
Shrouded by the staggered warnings
You, wolf howling
Hair on my coat, in my throat I'm choking

Say it's true, I'll be OK
The forest took half of my name

Strayed too far beneath the trees
Nightfall blue has swallowed me

Rummaging, rummaging around in the dark for the right path
I trip, I confess, rip open my dress and you laugh
Now there's a change in your eyes
A beast in disguise, I depart, rise
Tree, star, sky, you
