Thanksgiving Lyrics by Mount Eerie

Live in Copenhagen

0

[Verse: Phil Elverum, Adrian Orange]
I give thanks again that long nights, though they're lonely
They’re lit by stars, that end with suns that climb
And the moon will back me up on this, just look up
"But the moon won't take you out to wine and dine"
Oh I know, but there her hand is on my shoulder
"But every evening, we still hear you whine and whine!"
I know, I know but, like a sibling, I neglect her
But we have no choice, I'm hers and she is mine
And she is yours, and you are hers, and we're each other’s
"Oh shut up Phil, you're just shouting empty rhymes!”
I know
The world's alone
This light's on loan until we have grown
Old enough to pay it back with our gruesome rotting
And our lives, they’re just long saggings of the spine
So here I sit, hunched over my candle in the black night
"Thanksgiving", here I hug my sorrow tight
