Narcolepsy Weed [w/ Blue Spruce] - Sarah Slean, Blue Spruce

Look at you

Broken bird

Narcolepsy Weed

Highway-side

Like a puppet cut

You can’t wake

I can’t sleep

And now they’ve got you stealing cars and chasing lullabies

How will I drag you

Out of motel daydreams

When will you realize?

I don’t make sugar promises

Like dandelion seeds

Lying still

With open palms

I’m only watching you breathe

They talk like they know

Like they believe

But I’d bet the brotherhood that if they found you here

They’d leave

Oh good day orphan town

Peace is raining down

Warm your hands

On my shoulder blades

My parents gave me this peace

Who we are is how we love

That is all I need

So tell the morning

Night is lifting

And mauve is moving in

Like the steam that rises

From the garden beds

Your pain finds the wind

Oh good day orphan town

Peace is raining down

Good day orphan town

Peace is raining down
