Lyrics

[00:38.536] I lay on the bed in the dark
[00:45.434] Laughing at things I think of
[00:54.762] Getting off on the pornography of my past
[01:07.140] Lighting matches and dropping them
[01:11.478] Into a wet glass
[01:18.266] It's summer now and it's hot
[01:24.001] And the sweat pours out
[01:32.509] And the air is the same as my body
[01:39.031] And I breathe my body inside out
[01:50.227] With sunlight around my skin turns brown
[01:55.624] And you wouldn't know me from your pa
[02:00.792] Or Adam or Allah
[02:07.842] But I haven't changed
[02:13.779] No I haven't changed
[02:18.391] Day is all that resolves
[02:27.877] All we need is here on earth
[02:34.530] About every other day
[02:39.879]
[03:03.140] Scratchmarks on my knees since I've been running
[03:08.459] The bramble lee The bramble lee
[03:18.959] Oh the bramble lee Oh the bramble lee
[03:29.929] When I'd much rather be wanting to be
[03:34.891] Running the loping
[03:44.286] Peace on your hand
[03:47.617] Don't be silly
[03:55.276] But peace on my body
[03:58.411] When tired and beaten
[04:06.436] All we need is here on earth
[04:13.247] About every other day
[04:17.398]
[04:47.151] Oh to live in the country
[04:53.357] With a chicken and those other things
[04:59.146] Where the hills loping
[05:04.580] Where the dress and the hair in the river
[05:14.072] Undulating
[05:21.801] To take a wife and no paper
[05:27.945] Never again to wonder
[05:34.235] Did that rapper rape her
[05:42.065] All we need is here on earth
[05:47.750] About every other day
[05:59.242] All we need is here on earth
[06:05.756] About every other day
[06:11.592]
