Emily Dickinson Lyrics - Clutch

The farmhouse was overtaken 

By vine and the snake 

Hooked on phantom power 

The acres seemed to ache 

Pursued by floating rebels 

They'd take us, if they could 

I thought a spell of country living 

Would do my spirits good 

Emily Dickinson 

Won't you lay your hair down low? 

Staring out the windowpane 

There's so much more to know 

Emily Dickinson 

All buttoned down in Victoria-black 

Let's watch the white clouds run 

With the cool grass on our backs

The door mouse was mistaken 

There was no quarter there 

The attic and the cellar 

Were but jaws of a bear 

The hunter was the quarry 

All tangled in the wood 

I thought a spell of country living 

Would do my spirits good 

Emily Dickinson 

Won't you lay your hair down low? 

Staring out the windowpane 

There's so much more to know 

Emily Dickinson 

All buttoned down in Victoria-black 

Let's watch the white clouds run 

With the cool grass on our backs

Disembodied gentry 

Gathered by my door 

Your electrical habits 

Aren't welcome here anymore 

That day I left 

With a locket and glove 

Keepsakes lest I forget 

A woman by the name of 

Emily Dickinson 

Won't you lay your hair down low? 

Staring out the windowpane 

There's so much more to know 

Emily Dickinson 

All buttoned down in Victoria-black 

Let's watch the white clouds run 

With the cool grass on our backs 

Emily Dickinson 

Trade your lily for a rose 

Run to the valley 

Where the wild daisy grows 

Emily Dickinson 

Won't you lay your hair down low? 

Staring out the windowpane 

There's so much more to know
