The Pier, My Lord

from Old Judgments by Jersey Water

/

lyrics

I wanna die
At least for a while
And the walks I’ll take while no one is around
Would you recommend me to a friend
Cause the walks I’ll take
They’ll only bring me down

Don’t look away
My body has swung
Towards a color we’ll all be thinking of
When we’re tired and gray
I’d hate to be there in a while

I should have known with these rusty limbs
I’d be swollen for you and everything
Ladies, hide me under the pier, my Lord
Ladies, hide me under the pier

So if I’m gonna die
At least for a while
Oh, the walks I’ll take while no one is around
Would you recommend me to a friend
Cause the walks I’ll take
They’ll only bring me down

Oh, look away
My body’s so plain
And, oh, when we used to haunt ourselves so strange
We moved by ourselves
I’d love to be there for a while

I should have known with these rusty limbs
I’d be swollen for you and everything
Ladies, hide me under the pier, my Lord
Ladies, hide me under the pier
