The Devil's Harp şarkı sözleri

I tuned the devils harp It was the last thing that I heard Before I walked the stretch of road between nagoya and absurd I meant to find my lover there But I found a little bird She sang me how the world was made I hung on every word She told me why the rabbit cries and why some stars were red She told me where the doper goes to lay his weary head And that the world was incomplete And the king would soon be dead She offered me her wing that night I took the road instead Maybe I'm back, baby Maybe I'm falling from the poplar tree Carry me back, baby With borrowed pride I could not hide I grew a sailors beard And as I walked to my innocence My leaves disappeared Rented a room upon the hill Where a marble cat appeared Showed me where the fire was And I had nothing to fear For all gods good And brotherhood We drank til I was crowned Then a lady from the everglades pulled my ass up off the ground She kissed me four times on the cheek And once upon the brow For a moment I believed that I had come for what I found Now I sit alone with all the cracks in my guitar For all the miles ive put behind I havent come that far But we are all compelled to look For the wind inside a jar Maybe I'm back, baby Maybe I'm falling from the poplar tree Carry me back, baby
