Wilderness by Ghost Heart Lyrics
Everything’s rusted and the water’s overflowing
And it’s rising up and it’s taking hold of me
Another kettle, blackened, left up on the stove
Screaming, “I love you, but it’s time for us to go.”
Remember the taste of luck, a wild ginger rose
The heat of the desert fog at the horrors that we know
Everything’s rusted and the water’s pouring in
Left all the dirty dishes shattered on the floor
Sweep all the broken pieces underneath the rug
Wash your hands of all the dust and shards and blood
Remember that this is something only we will know
Remember that this is something only we will know
Oh let down when mixed with fire
Take your things and leave, but that means nothing
I’ll cast my shadow, oh, so grey
To cover you up and keep you safe
I’m tired of breaking our heart
Oh, brother, I’ll, I’ll nurse that leg
I’ll cast my shadow, oh, so grey
To cover you up and keep you safe
There’s no ghost, no haunting here
Ever housing that you’re here is just neighbors of the name
I’ll stand tall, still, and quiet, oh
The plaster is cracking behind the pain and I’m over-cold
Meet me in the shadows, oh tonight
Heart is aching, keeping it inside
We’ll go where the barking dogs won’t keep us up at night
Pack your things, we’ll leave when it gets dark
And it’s rising up and it’s taking hold of me
Another kettle, blackened, left up on the stove
Screaming, “I love you, but it’s time for us to go.”
Remember the taste of luck, a wild ginger rose
The heat of the desert fog at the horrors that we know
Everything’s rusted and the water’s pouring in
Left all the dirty dishes shattered on the floor
Sweep all the broken pieces underneath the rug
Wash your hands of all the dust and shards and blood
Remember that this is something only we will know
Remember that this is something only we will know
Oh let down when mixed with fire
Take your things and leave, but that means nothing
I’ll cast my shadow, oh, so grey
To cover you up and keep you safe
I’m tired of breaking our heart
Oh, brother, I’ll, I’ll nurse that leg
I’ll cast my shadow, oh, so grey
To cover you up and keep you safe
There’s no ghost, no haunting here
Ever housing that you’re here is just neighbors of the name
I’ll stand tall, still, and quiet, oh
The plaster is cracking behind the pain and I’m over-cold
Meet me in the shadows, oh tonight
Heart is aching, keeping it inside
We’ll go where the barking dogs won’t keep us up at night
Pack your things, we’ll leave when it gets dark
