Vesper

Mommy’s in Neptune, Daddy don’t sea

LYRICS

Been looking fer,    
My heaven bird,    
I’ve gotta make it pour    
    
My dad’s unsure,    
He’s been a blur,    
I don’t want him runnin’ no more    
    
He’s got fire-tipped arrows,    
Flies ’em at night    
Tells me they’re marrow,    
But I don’t think he’s right    
    
I want water    
So we do not lose    
I walked sunrise ‘round the chapel,    
Three weeks, what good did it do?    

I want water,    
With all this to wash,    
If I don’t cool it off,    
We’re gonna be lost    
    
There are wizards at the marina    
Saying they sell what I need,    
Or it’s the right direction,    
I don’t know how to question discretion

Without water,
And this was not that,
But my life filled in for a minute,
And I want that minute back

I want water

Cave men in the lawn

What do I have?

LYRICS

We were never that way,
And I find it frightening,
There was hell in their veins,
I mean we think it’s likely

They didn’t show any shame,
Laughing there at our Lord,
In his righteous name,
Would you not marry them to the board?

Where’s the devil these days?
He ain’t no more in me,
Since the devil left our way,
Is he everywhere you look, everyone you see?

Where’s the devil these days?
Did you hear what they’re writing?
This world is trash, but do right,
Cuz the next one’s inviting

Where’s the devil these days?
