Lyrics White Denim

White Denim

Burnished

The bird and the snake

Over the sky how they fight

Two countries that kiss

Cross a river at night

A burnished mistake

How it gleams in the night

A piece of hot clay

The fine edge of a life

A relevant take on the nature of giving is more than I'm able to lift

A meaningful shake on the order of nature should be like sort of a gift

Apparently used to the musings of angels we chirp in the arms of a birch

Now you're gonna come and try to tell me now to leave

How you gonna come and try to tell me now to leave

I've been laying brick a'roofing house and laying seed

You've been layin' 'round absorbin' dirt amassin' need

How you gonna come and try to tell me now to leave

How you gonna come and try to tell me now to leave
