- Kimya Dawson Wandering Daughter 歌词
- Kimya Dawson
- i am the wanderer's wandering daughter wrestle the pestle for the sake of the mortar i love as i breathe and leave as i live my cast iron shield's a titanium sieve and a castle that's built on confusion and doubt is a nickel within and a dollar without just when the shoes seem so big i can't win i fill my own sneakers and take off again i am the wanderer's wandering daughter take all my pain and i mix it with water it's sunny it's sweet and i don't purple stuff it one day by the way i met little miss muffet i blew my mind with the stuff that i taught her i am the wanderer's wandering daughter i said if a spider should sit down beside you tell him your name and then tell him the truth a great hairy spider appeared there and then and the holes in my soul started letting in wind i felt like a lamb being led to the slaughter i am the wanderer's wandering daughter she said i'm miss muffet i'm very afraid but something inside me is making me stay i know deep down that if i run away i'll just meet more spiders and still feel the same the spider he smiled and said how is this true when i am so terribly smaller than you? my web it just went in the way the wind blew what i was in for i hadn't a clue he touched her face gently with six of his legs and licked from her chin a speck of curds and whey when i was certain they'd both be okay i tightened my laces and i walked away as i walked away i was feeling excluded wishing my impulses weren't diluted the muscle i hustle is real for my friends but the muscle i keep for myself is pretend i am the wanderer's wandering daughter travel the land and i live like a martyr the things that i do aren't the things that i teach if i spend my time practicing when will i preach? i do what i must as you do what you oughta i am the wanderer's wandering daughter take all my pain and mix it with water i am the wanderer's wandering daughter i'm lost and alone and i'm fair and i'm free you am what you is and i are who i be what i'm lacking in strength i make up for in smarts you keep your stability i'll keep my heart fear finds october emotions are juices beat around bushes and make up excuses go out for ceruleans come home with chartreuses snip and cut bonsais and turn them to spruces miss muffet called me and she said don't cry real friends are friends until after they die still i romanticize all this disorder i am the wanderer's wandering daughter hop the next bus and run for the border i am the wanderer's wandering daughter give you my life if you give me a quarter i am the wanderer's wandering daughter so long it's been good to know ya so long it's been good to know ya so long it's been good to know ya i've got to be moving along
