Peeling Off The Bark
Lyrics
Leaning in a dark room: a look alike James Wright (when all my life I’ve been rejecting, what will I say yes to?). What did I say yes to? I’d been cutting glass carefully & all my time was spent alone; I didn’t expect you. What did I say yes to? What did I say? Been talking ‘bout you so much I’m talking you away. (What did I say yes to? What did I say? I’ve been talking about you so much I’m talking you away.) Cooking up some mushroom in my kitchen, tryna tell you about my month; you’re only half-listening. I know I never listen; how can I? Your eyes bloom: slanted yellow in the blinds bleeding into a dark room. So how could I say yes to you? What should I say? I’ve been talking ‘bout you so much Yea, what did I say yes to? What did I say? I’ve been thinking ‘bout you so much I think I’m thinking you away. I'm opening it up now: What a plunge! What a lark! I'm picking all the seeds out, I'm peeling off the bark. I'm picking all the seeds out! I'm breaking it apart. I'm opening it up now, I'm peeling off the bark.
