lyrics

sleep in shady water shares
and when i awake i'll find enough bone marrow

we won't find rafflesia there
but if we make it up somebody's bound tomorrow

but if you are feeling tired and malnourished
i will find the florist in the forest
you will be my enemy, i see it

and we'll cast fishnets in the meadow

chess played backwards takes too long
but if you beat a bear i'm sure he'll kill you with his bear claws

antlers, antlers on the shore
and then i got sick as a wick, my body is a sparrow

but who grows up and wants to be my daughter
when he comes home i hope he's not a stalker
i don't know much but who knows what is harder

and we'll cast fishnets in the meadow

today, i saw the first butterfly of spring
and i tore off its wings in a violent killing spree
and are you sure you want that
well i'm sure you tried the best
that you can is not enough
but you try anyway
my ice cream dinosaur

but if you are feeling tired and malnourished
wait on the rain if you know you're going to flourish
sometimes you win but mostly you're discouraged

and we'll fly back to the medieval ages
