Straw Hat Lyrics by The Ceremonies

The Ceremonies

2013

[Verse 1]
I said the big bad wolf won't catch me
And you can't say he comes around
Cause what you hear is not what I see
And I can tell my house is falling down
A bit shaky with my stethoscope
But there's a doc not far from town
I heard it once, but now I can't hear a sound
[Pre-Chorus]
He said that he was just hungry
Gave it everything he had
Look out your window, out your wits
Find out who's really bad
You certainly can't
And this I must grant
[Chorus]
Can I not try to analyze or read the daily news?
It took so long to realize I'm wearing someone else's shoes
The dreams won't take you from your war
But they can fill your heart with fright
And there's no chance to pacify
If you move right to goodnight
[Verse 2]
The paper stacks at my door
They bundle up and start to crowd
They'll eat me, eat my heart out
Well, I hear walking footsteps made in snow
What shapes and sizes
Please just let it go
You want my heart
You can't have my heart no more
Every time I
Think I hear a sound
It's like my whole world
Costs and weighs a pound
I'm warm not blooded
[Pre-Chorus]
No wind's blowing
Left my house on solid ground
The paper boy stops throwing
And this is what I found
The old abode
New stitches on the coat
That you sewed
[Chorus]
Can I not try to analyze or read the daily news
It took so long to realize I'm wearing someone else's shoes
The dreams won't take you from your war
But they can fill your heart with fright
And there's no chance to pacify
If you move right to goodnight
