Neutral Milk Hotel - Gardenhead / Leave Me Alone Lyrics

There are beads that wrap around your knees
That crackle into the dark like a walk in the park
Like a hole in your head, like the feeling you get
When you realize you're dead

This time we ride roller coasters into the ocean
We feel no emotion as we spiral down to the world
And I guess it's worth your time because there's some lives you live
And some you leave behind, it gets hard to explain
The gardenhead knows my name

Leave me alone, for you know this isn't the first time
In fact this is twice in a row
That the angels have slipped through our landslide
And filled up our garden with snow

And I don't wish to taste of your insides
Or to call out your name through my phone
For the glory boys at your bedside will love you
As long as you're something to own

Follow me through a city of frost covered angels
I swear I have nothing to prove, I just want to dance in your tangles
To give me some reason to move but to take on the world at all angles
Requires a strength I can't use, so I'll meet you up high in your anger
Of all that is hoping and waiting for you
