Lyrics Pegs - Anna Nalick

Pegs

Alone lone lone little dreamer
Alone lone lone
My lover’s got pegs
Where there used to be legs
My darlin' don’t dance anymore
And those stories he sold
They’re all full up with holes
It’s treacherous taking the floor
There was always someone breaking
When the other was doing fine
Left us staring at the ceiling
Wondering which of us was lyin'
It’s gonna take some time
Take some time
It’s gonna take some time
To feel alright
Alone lone lone little dreamer
Alone lone lone
Now I know the despair
Of an old empty chair
A mattress that’s wide as a mile
And I still get the growl
From a cat on the prowl
But they don’t see the crow in my smile
These visceral lines
They coagulate rhymes
So I can spit out what’s swallowing me
Cause I bleed newborn red
From a heart made of led
Heavy grey as the clouds that been following me
No, to love me, it wasn’t easy
It was nearly suicide
In the end we both chose living
But something in me died
It’s gonna take some time
Take some time
It’s gonna take some time
To feel alright, feel alright, feel alright
I wanna feel alright
Feel alright, feel alright, feel alright
I wanna feel alright
Someday I will thank the heavens
For his presence in my life
While I’m dancing on the planets
Of another lover’s eyes
But it’ll take some time
Take some time
It’s gonna take some time
To feel alright, feel alright, feel alright, feel alright
Feel alright, feel alright, feel alright, I wanna feel alright
Alone lone lone little dreamer
Alone lone lone
