This Vessel Is Striking Songtext
von Propolis

Pokeberry in my hand
Drips between my fingers
Stains my palm
Isn′t it a shame
You couldn't capture the color

And we both knew it was poison
As it disappeared down the drain
And we both knew it was over
As it disappeared down the drain

And there′s a world in my head
And it won't come out
It's full of people smiling
Saying welcome back

And there was this one time
We sailed across a lake
On an air mattress
With our stuff in a garbage bag
Hoping it would stay dry


It must have taken forever
But all I remember is
The way the sun made the water glow
A neon red

It must have taken forever
But all I remember is
The way the sun silhouetted
Their smiling faces

And there′s a world in my head
And it won′t come out
It's full of people smiling
Saying welcome back

And it was raining on the morning
When we ducked through the woods
Barefoot in our underwear

And there was this one time
We sailed across a lake
On an air mattress
With out stuff in a garbage bag
It all got wet


And we both knew it was poison
As it disappeared down the drain
And we both knew it was over
As it disappeared down the drain

And there′s a world in my head
And it won't come out
It′s full of people smiling
Saying welcome back
