Animal Collective - Lion In A Coma lyrics

When all this mess will get me down I will depart from Chinatown Weaving in and out of line, the sidewalk's full of merchandise My nervous tick has got to quit, my cheeks are chewed down to the bit Up on the roof is still a riot, the hustling crowds still get me tired I go up there and light a leaf and wish our turn was not so brief I'm paler than a summer blouse that's packed inside a haunted house I pack my bags and feel the family here is cropped by many hands That dig and plant me for the spring, come dig me out my lucid brain This wilderness up in my head This wilderness up in my head This wilderness needs to get right out of my clothes and get into my bedroom Is there no reason it can't be the way it was, music and me? My three best friends so casually just letting go so joyfully But if I let my wrist get tired, but if I let my spirit cry out There'll always be that fear of dying or is it just trying to divide? It makes me think my purest dreams are not what they're supposed to be I trick myself when it is hard, I've got to keep up, oh my god And hope that I will not be wrong and keep my faith inside a song I'm blooming but my roots remind me not to leave them back in time. This wilderness up in my head This wilderness up in my head This wilderness needs to get right out of my clothes and get into my bedroom Lion in a coma Sometimes the sun will shine Unless I am just feeling fine Sometimes I'm not aware Where I am or what I care Sometimes I'm well to do But I don't know what to do Sometimes I don't agree With my thoughts on being free Please don't leave me Things that feel good I've been lucky Trying to feel good Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to smell the fine aroma Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to run but cannot roam, a Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to use his aching bones, a Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Don't keep the lion in a coma Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to smell the fine aroma Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to use his aching bones, a Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Who wants to run but cannot roam, a Lion in a coma, lion in a coma Don't keep the lion in a coma.
