In the Rushes Lyrics
Barefoot, passing through
I knelt down to get a better view
Of what grew there
Well, what grew there?
Scared, heard a terrible sound
Lay down, played dead
That's when I heard it clearer
In the rushes a voice said:
You could walk around forever
And never notice me
A little closer in the rushes
Hiding down among the reeds
A seed, a seed
A seed, a seed
Oh, oh
I swallowed
It digested quick
But not enough to not make me sick
I lost it
It tasted like a light
Going off inside my mind
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La
Then suddenly I was out of harm's way
Forgetting the desire to remember
Trans tourist vanished
Finished damaged playback
I felt myself unraveling at a racetrack
I felt myself unraveling at a racetrack
Then I coughed up blood
Scraped it off my tongue
Sucked it off my thumb
And it was rotten
Oh, ooh
Care to care
I knelt down but you weren't there anymore
I was pushed into a bush
In the rushes on the screen
It was all acting
Cellos, cellos, cellos, cellos
Cellos, cellos, cellos, cellos
Cellos, cellos, cellos, cellos
Cellos, cellos, cellos, cellos
I can't believe it
Believe that I had seen it
Remembered who was in my arms
Remembered when I had arms
It's like a dream
The way that it unfolded
Like I'd been in the rushes without knowing
I kissed it but I must admit
I missed it now I do forget
Like I'd been in the rushes without knowing
You are forgotten
You've been forgotten
You are forgotten
You've been forgotten
You are forgotten
You are forgotten
You are forgotten
You are forgotten
You are forgotten
You are forgotten
You're all forgotten
