lyrics

Spare me
Wear me 'round your neck
Stick around this town until you make your nest
In the pear tree
Soon to meet it's end
Rotten fruit around my ankles, but it's sweeter than the rest

I've been looking at this wrong
Pulling teeth I went the wrong way
I couldn't hold my tongue
Hold me
Reason not to run
Burning feathers swarm around, and slowly cover up the sun

I don't know you yet
You find me so down, but so blessed
I don't know you yet
You find me so down, but so blessed


What on earth are you crying for?
Pull the wool away
Push the wall over
Do you still see the light of day?
I can't tell the teeth from fur

Spare me
Wear me 'round your neck
Stick around this town until you make your nest
In the pear tree
Soon to meet it's end
Rotten fruit around my ankles, but it's sweeter than the rest

Spare me
Put me down like that
Cut me loose if what you need is living life without me
Blame
You forgot your place
Where's the laughter ever-after
If i'm standing in the way

I've been looking at this wrong
Pulling teeth I went the wrong way
I couldn't hold my tongue
Hold me
Reason not to run
Burning feathers swarm around, and slowly cover up the sun

I don't know you yet
