Can't Be Lyrics

Agnes Obel Can't Be

I can't be, I can't be
Keep digging, keep digging deep
Can't keep me calm
Can't keep me whole, can't keep me whole

Like a script for the screen, I would fall for you
Every bit to smithereens, by the fall for you

Boundless, I won't be yours (too close, too close)
With the ripples of the stream
With no mind or core

I can't be, I can't be
Keep digging, keep digging deep
Can't keep me calm
Can't keep me whole, can't keep me whole
Can't reach the sun

Don't be, don't be, no ending
Don't be what you were, friend
I won't be no effigy
I won't be no effigy
