Owls
Suspicions deflect with her charm and emotional depth
Gin was a poison you'd never quite smell on her breath
And I
Skip through the apple orchard hand in hand
Follow the serpent's path with contraband
She'll let me in once again
I try, I try
In groves where the wormwood owls call she'd have me observe
She'd wring at her cloth as to wring at the necks of the birds
They'd die
Ferociously yelping out a horrid sound
Ancestors in my mind calling "let her out"
But she'll keep me in once again
I try, I try
Seething with hard love and hatred I'd lay in my bed
She'd call me upstairs to recite all the thoughts in my head
I cried
She was a lure of which I was ensnared
From birth she could read my mind and kept me there
But I'll let her in once again
Or I'll try, or I'll try
Gin was a poison you'd never quite smell on her breath
And I
Skip through the apple orchard hand in hand
Follow the serpent's path with contraband
She'll let me in once again
I try, I try
In groves where the wormwood owls call she'd have me observe
She'd wring at her cloth as to wring at the necks of the birds
They'd die
Ferociously yelping out a horrid sound
Ancestors in my mind calling "let her out"
But she'll keep me in once again
I try, I try
Seething with hard love and hatred I'd lay in my bed
She'd call me upstairs to recite all the thoughts in my head
I cried
She was a lure of which I was ensnared
From birth she could read my mind and kept me there
But I'll let her in once again
Or I'll try, or I'll try
