The Eel Lyrics by Modern Woman

Dogs Fighting In My Dream

2021

[Verse 1]
She must have swam alone
There were times we went together
She didn't flinch at the weeds or bike wheels hidden in the silk
She'd float out over in [?]
Although I'd go there with her
I'd sit on the bank as she tried to tempt me in
[Verse 2]
The cuts from the gravel
The police went on to ask
The scrapes on her knees and on her stomach and her wrists
She told me clumsiness
I traced somеone to [?]
Mapped out like watеrways to bless her
[?] like love-bites, never wanted to scratch her
[Verse 3]
And I knew shed have been blackout drunk
And I told them she was renowned for it
Before I'd even found her crawling or passed out near that river twice
Maybe spiked so many times I drove her back and she'd sunk down upon my shoulder
I felt dead
She could've swallowed me up
[Chorus]
[?]
[Verse 4]
They catch eels there with all sorts
In those parts most of the time I'd stay on the bank
But she'd swing over it when she was drunk
I said it felt dangerous
She'd pull up on off her dress
But swimming she seemed silver and pearly, spiny, slippy but wanting it
Oh fuck
[Chorus]
[?]
[Instrumental Outro]
