Pulled Up the Ribbon

[Verse 1]
A tangled acre
Oh tall tree shaker
Oh mountain maker
Oh mountain breaker
Oh faultline quaker
A torn-off anchor

[Verse 2]
And the hot heart healer
Is a sweet street feeler
And a wild wind wheeler
The pink prince of failures
Is a spoiled sea sailor
Wincers and wailers

[Chorus 1]
Pulled up the ribbon
Pulled up the ribbon
And brought into the light
Through the window of the dawn

[Verse 3]
Like an air-blue eagle
Sailing through the ceiling
At the edge of feeling
On the emerald island
Only shipwrecks spy him
And the searchlights shining

[Chorus 2]
And then pulled up the ribbon
Pulled up the ribbon
And brought into the light
Pulled up the ribbon
Pulled up the ribbon
And washed all in the sky

[Chorus 2]
You pull up the ribbon
You pull up the ribbon
Across oceans of sky
Through the endless on and on
Till starlit
And in and outward drawn
We'll rise
Alright
