Lady
Al Church and State Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time moves slow by the river
And nobody pulls the trigger quicker
Than the lady with sapphire eyes, the tide moves in and the sky fractalizes
Lady river, she walks with me
Lady river, she talks to me at night
And I don't think twice when I look in her eyes cause the moonlight fills the spaces between
The dawn and dusk of my mind
Oh
Take me to the river one last time
Take me to the river to ease my mind
Caught in a state of perpetual hallucinations inside of her head
I'm a manifestation of all the thoughts that she created
So why are you coming to me and asking all these questions?
When I'm living in a plain beyond time and space above your bullshit, and it's
It's taking control now, it's taking control
It's taking control of what I see and I speak and I feel yeah




It's taking control now, it's taking control
It's taking control all over me yeah
