Sweet Billy Pilgrim - In the Water I Am Beautiful lyrics

Artist: Sweet Billy Pilgrim

album: We Just Did What Happened and No One Came


The eyes of crows will snag my clothes
My seams to pick and snip
And bruises creep like smoke beneath
My wrinkled fingertips
When I cry my tears leave oily rainbows in the snow
But in the water I am beautiful
Them's the breaks, the daily ache
So vague and ill-defined
And hearts will stop like broken clocks
As promises unwind
I feel like a souvenir, too tacky to be cool
But in the water I am beautiful
The cathode flash of all that trash
Lights me up like a star
And little kicks for little pricks
Are lined up on the bar
One more little push and I'll surrender to the pull
But in the water I am beautiful
Water in my mouth – Words get pretty hard to swallow
Cold sets in my bones
Water in my ears – Words are pretty hard to follow
I'm old enough to feel like I'm alive
In the water I am beautiful
