Locust - Black Lips

You kept the linen clean but you couldn’t keep the dirt off me

Pourin' seconds from a broken clock, leavin' hours piled up on the floor

I might feel the sun but the sun certainly won’t feel me

My hands are icy cold but everythin' they touch feel heat

Everybody knows

That while I’m passin' by

The concrete starts to shake

I’m a locust in the wind

Now there’s nothin' where I’ve been

Just a feelin' left behind

Stole the bell right off the ship so they’re never gonna hear it ring

Passengers will be asleep while the pipes are ripped from under the sink

I’m never goin' to be the one who’s never been lost in the sea

I’d rather eat the soap that was meant to wash the dirt from me

Everybody knows

While I’m passin' by

The forest comes awake

Now I’m talkin' to the wind

Both askin' where we’ve been

And what’s been left behind

I might feel the sun but the sun certainly won’t feel me

My hands are icy cold but everythin' they touch feel heat

You kept the linen clean but you couldn’t keep the dirt off me

I’d rather eat the soap that was meant to keep me clean

Everybody knows

While I’m passin' by

The concrete starts to shake

I’m a locust in the wind

Now there’s nothin' where I’ve been

Just a feelin' left behind

Everybody knows

While I’m passin' by

The forest comes awake

Now I’m talkin' to the wind

Both askin' where we’ve been

And what been left behind
