Fleet Foxes - The Plains/Bitter Dancer Lyrics

Artist: Fleet Foxes

Album: Helplessness Blues

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Robin Noel Pecknold

Just as the sand made everything round
Just as the tar seeps up from the ground
Bitter dancer, ever turning
So was the day that you came to town

You took a room and you settled in
Washed off the chalk from your weathered skin
Daylight sleeper, bloody reaper
You took a room and you settled in

I should have known one day you would come
All of us walk so blind in the sun
Midnight feeder, beggar pleader
I should have known one day you would come

Tell me again, my only son
Tell me again, what have you done?

At arm's length
I will hold you there
There

At arm's length
I will hold you there
There
