Tall Black Trees Lyrics by Pigeon Pit

Shut In

2015

Moonlight comes in filtered through smoke rings
Next Netflix episode plays and that means that maybe you are staying over
You fell asleep smoking your cigarette
It started to burn your hair
It smelled fucking awful but that’s the only thing that I ever want to smell
You woke up before me and found my beer cans in the shower
I would be embarrassed but I sleep in after you for hours
The morning sun comes in filtered through smoke
You cooked polenta and mushrooms
And that's the only thing I ever want to smell
And I have never felt so overwhelmed and anxious
I don’t think I’ve ever seen myself so distant and dismissive
Like when you and I kicked off our shoes
We‘re standing dancing in your room and
I know that you’re going through some heavy shit right now
But I am fucking terrified of all the tall black trees that line the road that takes us right behind your wild seeking olive eyes
And I don’t want to wake up
I don’t wanna go to work
I want to die inside your room
And I don't know how many miles it will take me to escape out of this forest I feel growing up around me
And I don’t know how many burn marks I will leave before this place catches on fire and I burn down my anxiety
And I am fucking terrified of all the tall black trees that line the road that takes us right behind your wild seeking olive eyes
And I don’t want to wake up
I don’t wanna go to work
I want to die inside your room
