Northern Bound Take Me by Elder Sister Plum Lyrics

I can't begin to explain
Why I feel this way
More insane than yesterday
Black and blue on the balls of my feet
Oh I feel the weight
Of the cosmos and the fates
Bearing down on me
These walls can't begin to contain
My dreaming ways
I am knocked down by these waves
Of wanderlust
And oh how it's getting me lost
On a daily basis
I cannot base this
In any reality
But in my fantasies
I am capable of more
Than what these eyes have seen
Take me over the mountains
Toss me in a boat, swept away by currents
Scratching up my throat from
Singing to the birds, yeah won't you
Take me to the mouth of the river
I want to get my hair wet, I want to get my lungs clean
I want to breathe the air that
I was meant to breathe
Won't you take me, where the sun shines brighter
Than starlets and street lights
Late night bar fights
Drinking our faces off to the races
Take me where the night falls darker
Than closeted urges, gluttonous purges
Show me a darkness
Where beauty emerges
Take me, oh won't you take me
I can't begin to explain
Why I feel this way
More insane than yesterday
