Fire Snakes Lyrics - Laura Veirs

LAURA VEIRS 

Fire Snakes 

Mermaids 

Shimmer in the waves 

Wanted to share a word 

Course they only waved 

Left me alone 

With the blood in my mouth 

To paw and to pray 

To tear at the fray for a thundercloud

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

To dress up your wounds 

Wash off the salt 

Freshen the blooms 

At your sea-rusted altar 

Caldera's edge 

We'll hold hands and wait 

Mudflows are greyhounds 

Exploding from gates 

With hot ash and hot rocks 

They'll crash and they'll mosh 

Till the trees are all flat 

And we all collapse from the chase 

Photos 

Then I'll dress up your wounds 

Wash off the salt 

Freshen the blooms 

At your mud-crusted altar
