Garden Head Leave Me Alone Lyrics - On Avery Island - Neutral Milk Hotel

Around your knees that crackle into the dark 

Like a walk in the park like a hole in your head 

Like the feeling you get when you realize you're dead 

This time we ride roller coasters into the ocean 

We feel no emotion as we spiral down to the world 

And I guess it's worth your time 

Because there's some lives you live 

And some you leave behind 

It gets hard to explain 

The gardenhead knows my name 

Leave me alone, for you know this isn't the first time 

In fact this is twice in a row 

That the angels have slipped through our landslide 

And filled up our garden with snow 

And I don't wish to taste of your insides 

Or to call out your name through my phone 

For the glory boys at your bedside will love you 

As long as you're something to own 

Follow me through a city of frost covered angels 

I swear I have nothing to prove 

I just want to dance in your tangles 

To give me some reason to move 

But to take on the world at all angles 

Requires a strength I can't use 

So I'll meet you up high in your anger 

Of all that is hoping and waiting for you
