Joanna Newsom - Cassiopeia Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Feel the matress tense beneath me

like the muscle of nonsleepy;

Feathers flexing will defeat me,

and it vexes me completely.

And the hexes heat covertly

like a slow low-flying turkey

like a Texan drying jerky

but his meaty mitts can't hurt me

With my steely will compounded

in a mighty mound that's hounded

by the SNAP my steel string sounded,

just before your snores unwound it.

And in store are dreams so daring

that the night can't stop from staring.

I'll swim sweetly as a herring

through the ether, not despairing.

Go to sleep, you stunning sky;

gently creep cunning by:

A quiet hum is amplified

by your thumb, that you suck dry.

Hundred raging waters snare the lonely sigh.

Hold your breath and clasp at Cassiopiea.
