Lyrics Vic Chesnutt

Vic Chesnutt

Threads

your personal pariah is in a wool cap

the mirror flakes away take a long nap

watching the threads disintegrate

like the Krishna beads in a lockbox safe

watching the threads disintegrate

like the Krishna beads in a lockbox safe

watching the threads disintegrate

crumbling like the lawn art you made

oh, lawn art you made

oh, lawn art you made

oh, lawn art you made

I was crumbling like the lawn art that you made

hard brown bread cut with a circular saw

shallow rattling breath with a wee cough

watching the threads disintegrate

foisted into the middle ages

watching the threads disintegrate

foisted into the middle ages

watching the threads disintegrate

remain in the ruckus and you will get scraped

oh, you will get scraped

oh, you will get scraped

oh, you will get scraped

if you remain in the ruckus and you will get scraped
