Car Seat Headrest Lady Gay Approximately
[Verse 1: Chanticleer]
Former dove comes back to the house
With blood on its wings and a bone in its mouth
He was on drugs or something
[Verse 2: Chanticleer]
Mother asks about his health
And doesn't know which of them needs the most help
Call the cops or something
[Chorus: Chanticleer]
Everything stands on communication
If you can't talk then there's no escaping
Even if you could talk, no escaping this
If it's a breakdown, then why won't it break?
Why won't it break?
[Verse 3: Chanticleer]
And they both tremble silently
And wait, and wait, and finally he finds something
Some words
[Verse 4: Malory]
I heard what you said when I turned my back
How could it possibly still hurt?
This is where we've been at
Since thе fourth grade choir recital
[Verse 5: Malory]
I picked my battlеs just like you said
Some days I decide I would rather be dead
It's the dead one you get
It's the dead one you get
Keep the rest for myself
[Verse 6: Lady Gay]
Still I could not let you go
Before you knew the way back home
Something happened to me before you were born
[Verse 7: Lady Gay]
You appeared in a spark of light
Saying "I am the one who wants this life
If you'll have me, I will come"
[Verse 8: Lady Gay]
I'd prayed to God to give me this grace
A place for this pain, a smiling face
That could feel this with me
[Verse 9: Lady Gay]
And you came in a coat of many colors
The shine of your feathers was like no other
Please wear it again, we swear we won't hurt you
We swear we won't hurt you this time
[Verse 10: Lady Gay]
And you're telling me not to say the name
But also you're looking into my eyes and asking "Am I dead?"
No, you're my son
[Outro: Lady Gay]
"Am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am I dead?" (Am I dead?)
No, you're my son (You're my son)
"Am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am, am I dead?" (Am I dead?)
No, you're my son (You're my son)
