Shotgun Wedding Lyrics

Kat Flint Shotgun Wedding

The walls of our home
Are letting in light
But we'll sleep tonight
Oh, we'll sleep tonight

The last of the meal
Is wasting away
They could feed the ghosts
From those dying planes

Evening came in shocks of light
The fireworks burn through our wedding night
Only sky fell faster than the twilight
The twilight

Ooh...

You in your suit
And blazes of red
As they raise the roof
From our honeymoon bed

The flowers are (something)
In sickly sweet wine
And my father's smile
Oh, my father's smile

Evening came in shocks of light
The fireworks burn through our wedding night
Only sky fell faster than the twilight
The twilight

Evening came in shocks of light
The fireworks burn through our wedding night
Only sky fell faster than the twilight
The twilight

Ooh...

Evening came in shocks of light
The fireworks burn through our wedding night
Only the sky fell faster than the twilight
The twilight


Candyfloss Branches

I'm feeling childish in the morning
I woke up twelve again
I didn't like it first time 'round
And I hoped I'd aged a bit since then

Dress down and foolish in the morning
Too childish, foolish for this world
A withered limb to drag around
To drag around a withered girl

And I walk home amid the scent of summer
Streetlights turn the trees to rust
Through empty places breathing cut-grass dust
And black crows sleep in twisted candyfloss branches
I get lost
Drunk on the dying light
Carry me home tonight

I'm feeling fragile in the morning
Wasn't what I drank or what I said
I try to always tell the truth
The truth, she finds you in the end

And I walk home amid the scent of summer
Streetlights turn the trees to rust
Through empty places breathing cut-grass dust
And black crows sleep in twisted candyfloss branches
I get lost
Drunk on the dying light
Carry me home tonight

And I walk home amid the scent of summer
Streetlights turn the trees to rust
Through empty places breathing cut-grass dust
And black crows sleep in twisted candyfloss branches
I get lost
Drunk on the dying light
Carry me home tonight

And I walk home amid the scent of summer
Streetlights turn the trees to rust
Through empty places breathing cut-grass dust
And black crows sleep in twisted candyfloss branches
I get lost
Drunk on the dying light
Gets me through the night
