As a Kid It Was a Lake, Now It's a Body Lyrics

Some things don't occur naturally

Even though they seem

As real as you and me

The sky slides off the lake

A body you see more and more growing up

And you can carve the bark off the tree

It's indifferent to it's pain

And every drop inside the body

Began from different places

Sometime you were born a bottle on bear skin

Somewhere they can't trace

Through the trees to the ground

Where Mother Nature lays

Across needles and towels

Scattered in her drain pipes

Their her high lays

Scattered highways

Iron birds that eat for hundreds

Black rivers in concrete coffins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

(This was her face

This is her face

Flowers for face

Flowers for face)

Iron birds that eat for hundreds

Black rivers in concrete coffins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

(This was her face

This is her face

Flowers for face

Flowers for face)

Iron birds that eat for hundreds

Black rivers in concrete coffins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

(This was her face

This is her face

Flowers for face

Flowers for face)

Iron birds that eat for hundreds

Black rivers in concrete coffins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

Train tracks on the heads of dolphins

(This was her face

This is her face

Flowers for face

Flowers for face)

Will you take me to the body of water

Where I really think I drowned

If I can I really won't swim I want to go down

To feel the water want me

Like no one else

Like no one else at all

No one else at all

Like no one else

Like no one else at all
