Cursive - Let Me Up Lyrics
Diseased heatAugust on the 101Let me upThe pale moonOffers no consolationsWould you let me up?Mosquitoes fat with our marrowEbb and flow through the gumboThis humid bouillon a cesspoolStopWon't someone please let me up?We're buoyed inAtop the mercuryLet me upWe're the salt of the earthFrom a cell of the surf, this universeWell let me upLet me up(Why won't you let me up?)I once had gills but they closed upHad webbed feet but they dried upStill have lungs but they're sewn upStopStopWon't someone just let me up?OhWe don't existIn an instantLet me upThere's a hole in the floorAs black as my momma's wombThose were the daysWon't you let me up?I can't stop thinking of the timeI was swallowed in the brineWon't you let me up?Let me upMama, the planet is a placentaPull the plugLet the heavens rise aboveWon't you let me up?Let me upLet me upLet me upLet me upLet me upI can't stop dreaming of the dayI got swallowed into spaceLet me upLet me upLet me upLet me upLet me upI'm drowning in the eggLet me up
