Box Cutters Lyrics by Amanda Shires

Down Fell the Doves

0

Shots from a gun
Lightning and rain
In a thunderstorm
It all sounds the same
See, I been thinking box cutters
And a warm bath
A rose-petaled
Eyes-closed collapse
To go finally to sleep
To rest, to rest
A beautiful dream
Beautiful dream
Plum wine
Warms the veins
Russian roulette
Is a winning game
Fall from a tractor
Into the blades
The sun comes up
Just your bones remain
To go finally to sleep
To rest, to rest
A beautiful dream
Beautiful dream
Carbon monoxide in the garage
Put the seat back
Turn the engine on
Let it run
Drown in the waves
Ocean and blue
Let go, let go
Let 'em think you didn't mean to
To go finally to sleep
To rest, to rest
A beautiful dream
Beautiful dream
