The Woodpile

Frightened Rabbit - The Woodpile

Far from the electric floor
Removed from the red meat market
I looked for a fire door
An escape from the drums and barking
Bereft of all social charms
I'm struck dumb by the hand of fear
I fall into the corner's arms
Same way that I've done for years

I'm trapped in a collapsing building
Come find me now where I hide and
We'll speak in our secret tongues

Will you come back to my corner
Spent too long alone tonight
Would you come brighten my corner
A lit torch to the woodpile high

Dead wood waits to ignite
There's no spark on a dampened floor
A snapped limb in an unlit pyre
Won't you come and break down this door

I'm trapped in an abandoned building
Come find me now where I hide and
We'll speak in our secret tongues

Will you come back to my corner
Spent too long alone tonight
Would you come brighten my corner
A lit torch to the woodpile high


Will you come back to my corner
Spent too long alone tonight
Would you come and brighten my corner
A lit torch to the woodpile high

Will you come back to my corner
Spent too long alone tonight
Would you come brighten my corner
A lit torch to the woodpile
Come find me now where I hide and
We'll speak in our secret tongues
