Terrible Man Lyrics - New Inheritors - Wintersleep

A terrible man, a desperate 

attempt to make amends 

wrote a song for a girl or 

could not but just imagined, 

about something he read 

once, about static and 

distance, but he just simply 

could not without feeling 

terribly vain and incredibly 

distant, about recent 

encounters, about love and 

affliction, ziplocks and plastic 

containers, the gentleness 

of her kisses, 

about the possible cancer 

that has manifested in 

the mirror far right of his 

forehead, about a world that 

could never be kind, never 

be kind, never be kind, never 

be kind, about the taste of 

tree sap, about growing old, 

about his fear of the cold and 

the darkness at age 27 and 

how foolish does that make 

him, bundled up in the cold, 

afraid of the dark at age 27, 

a song for a girl, he knew 

he'd never quite finish, in the 

drunk breath of Autumn, in 

all its glory and strangeness, 

we can hide, we can hide, 

we can hide, we can hide, 

you are mine, you are mine, 

you are mine, you are mine.
