Powderfinger - This Syrup To Exchange Lyrics
Its a early riseHis teeth are furredAnd cleanse with hands to hunt and holdThe sun dividesImagined leavesA shelter while I sleepThere are many yearsTo cloud my mindBut no burdenIts heavy like a tipping loadEarly dayOn a bloodied patchOnly noise and brick surroundTradition sinksIn the soil hereAs a rock is swallowed in the mudThe polluted skinOf my brittle earthIt keeps the bleeding at bayThis syrup sweet and thick to exchange meMy spirit has rearrangedCrippled, dampened, lameAs it goesThe syrup fills my eyesThe days faces fade to blackAnd I dont feelAnd I cant fightFor my home anymoreAnymoreAnd I return to an open landWhere bloods blanket shielded meThis syrup sweet and thick to exchange meMy spirit has rearrangedCrippled, dampened, lame
