Her Freezings And Thawings - Dirty Projectors

The flowers are all blooming in the cemetery

Very fertile things are buried

Very fertile things are rising to the surface

And their heads now break the soft new ground

Penetrating icebergs, and their crests are dawning

By her freezings and thawings

The roses that lay in Memoriam Bay

They lay wilted

But look what supple daffodil did

She looks just like a drawing of an areola

In my seventh grade anatomy textbook

And college smells like vomit

'Cause someone puked upon it

In the stairwell last night

Many times

But it’s probably gonna be alright

From New England soil new rocks fruit each spring

Her soil cleaves and out she rings

Her soil cleaves and out she brings

Like a once ago

Like a once-swallowed bowling ball

Like a long ago once-swallowed bowling ball

And their heads are brought to the surface

Penetrating icebergs, and their crests are dawning

By her freezings and thawings
