Until I Am Whole by The Mountain Goats Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2012

[Verse 1]
Sunset on Snohomish
Burn the tree line down
Hold my hopes underwater
Stand there and watch them drown
Fishing out their bodies
From the bathroom sink
Leave them in a bucket
'Til they start to stink

[Chorus]
I think I'll stay here
'Til I feel whole again
I don't know when

[Verse 2]
Trout swim past the fishing lines
Sky gets dark and close
Cars start up and make
Their nightly exodus
On a picnic bench alone
Watch the sky go dark
Dig my nails into my hands
Hope it leaves a mark
[Chorus]
I think I'll stay here
'Til I feel whole again
I don't know when
