In a Little Town - Marissa Nadler

In the woods up on the rocks

With your candour man

Your bus stopped inside a clock

With your doberman

In this picture that I had

In this picture that I had

In the cul-de-sac we grew

Around the blocks like trees

Maple, elm and blues I knew

And studied to appease

At the school they bring you down

(At the school they bring you down)

At the school they bring you down

Maybe that’s just what you get

In a little town

You put a brush inside my hand

Colour on the hair

Went to deserts where the air

I was able to withstand

And you brought me to this song

(And you brought me to this song)

And these strings I bring along

Maybe that’s just what you get

In a little town (x2)

It’s hard to see the years progress

Tied to our a-bondings

You, I know, will convalesce

Within your surroundings

In this picture that I found

(In this picture that I found)

You are standing on a ground

Maybe that’s just what you get

In a little town (x3)
