Dingo Lyrics by Ruby Fields

Permanent Hermit

2019

[Verse 1]
Driving through an empty plain
The desert took me far away
The biggest nuisance, morning heat
My tent's barely bigger than me
Hear the dirt and hear the howls
Pretend that I'm not hurting now
I'm by myself and this is fine
But my voice starts not to feel like mine

[Pre-Chorus]
The quiet knocks, I say, "Come in"
It's just a tent, undo the zip
I drove a while, I might go to bed
But you can stay here if you're scared

[Chorus]
And I would swap these hands for paws
Dirty fingernails for claws
Don't care about the dirt or fleas
Leave behind all human parts of me

[Verse 2]
Sunrise so beautiful, I cry
And emotions are not things that I like
Remember it's a diesel tank
Otherwise you're out of bank
Try to surf when you find the coast
Can barely swim, sink under and choke
Stay under there, don't try to breathe
My biggest fear is redundancy

[Pre-Chorus]
Pink skies and early nights
Wish I could see the Northern Lights
Mate, can't you just be satisfied?
Can't look my rear view in the eye

[Chorus]
And I would swap these hands for paws
Dirty fingernails for claws
Don't care about the dirt or fleas
Leave behind all human parts of me

[Bridge]
Drive past signs, be scared of home
I love this heat and red dust place
Haunted by fucking dingoes
They're calling me, I want to stay

[Chorus]
And I would swap these hands for paws
Dirty fingernails for claws
Don't care about the dirt or fleas
Leave behind all human parts of me
