Manchester Orchestra I Was A Lid lyrics

I was a lid on a house we barely speak of
Folded again, I could see myself inside
And I was amazed how a God could know my first name
But you were amazed at the difference in my speech 2, 3, 4

So what of your words did I know you would deceive me
And what better in for a calmness in my side
So I made a way from a [Incomprehensible] Godspeed
And what a debate do you still know my full name

And I was the one that decided to light you on fire
'Cause you were a tree with a root that was wrapped in my brain
So build me a sign, make me know that you speak of a body
Oh, do, do plead, do, do you plead, do, do you plead, please?

And I had a thought, I did your house up faking causes
And I needn't a word, I am the saddest version yet
So what is the price I pay to be this wrong [Incomprehensible]?

I was the man that claimed to see but now I'm not

'Cause I am afraid of the good and bad beneath me
So give me a sign for the angels on my feet
I was a man, yeah I swear I was a man
So keep me alive for the angels in my feet

'Cause I am a way for a man to rid his skin clean
So send me a sign for the ones who need my seat

And I had a dream I killed our families
And you were the one I hoped you blame
And I felt a baby in your stomach
I knew who he was but he had no name
