Bright Eyes - Loose Leaves lyrics

Your rating:

The story is in the soil

Loose leaves cover the ground

There are volumes in the forest no one reads out loud

If I could take them down off of that mountain shelf...we used to climb but no one tries to go up that far now

Yeah, we're all too busy working, entertaining ourselves, 40 hours, television and prescription pills

Well, I take two a day to make my brain behave

It never does but who is to say, at least my doctor gets paid

So that is fine, yeah come by, we will take the afternoon off

We can kiss and undress if you want just talk

Because I have got nothing real, just empty space to fill

And you are my girl, I like your style, just imagine all the time we could kill



And time is not poison but once you drink it all you'll die

So lets just sip it real slow, yeah, we can nurse it all night

Try to believe that once its gone they will pour another round

We will come back to life

We'll come right back



It's all moving fast now, yeah, and that's what they say

And though some days still take forever I can't disagree

Because it seems to me that I wake up and sleep, look in the mirror and have no idea what happened in between

But I remember counting days down until the year could be done

So I could scatter all my notebooks on the prep school lawn

And disappear into a summer's bliss of staying out and sleeping in and getting drunk with my friends

And that's gone and I know that it won't ever come back

I accept

I won't cling to what I had in the past but life is a slippery slope

Regret is the steepest hill

Hope for the best

Plan for the worst and maybe wind up somewhere in the middle

And I'm not saying that I know what I want

But I know what I don't, don't want to rot in my room and never know what could have been, believe what everyone else tells me is true

They will say 'true'

That is what they'll say

That's it

Believe what everyone else tells me is true

They will say 'true'

That is what they'll say

That's it
