Bell - Charlie lyrics

Charlie... Buddy... Charlie do you feel a slow burn All along the wide old horizon? Bring me that lantern, buddy Everything is melting And we could only paddle so long Charlie Bring me some good news buddy Yeah come now Charlie Oh you're in a lake of lost hours Charlie in a big lake, swim Charlie! And I'll be in my life-boat waiting, buddy How the sun will bake our bones dry I can feel it coming closer, closer Bring me that lantern buddy, yeah come now Charlie... I will not let myself be carried home I will remain in that garden where I was grown Water in my roots, snow beneath my shooots I would not let myself be carried home If I own my uncertainty, I'll float With a call to the Great Upwelling, go And I've got water in my roots, buddy Snow beneath my shoes I won't let myself be carried home! Charlie I'm not a liar, don't you narrow your eyes No won't you come a bit closer I am leaving now I'm not a liar Charlie, don't you narrow your eyes Charlie I mean it now I'm sick of all the resolutions Nothing fixes itself buddy Look what we've done Lift all the soil in your body up to the sun! Charlie
