Lyrics Taken Boy - Avey Tare

Taken Boy

Dolly
The dog that lives in the woods makes me jealous
That I could be running like she by the cold stream
Then I wouldn’t be sitting with drinks at your table
Mentioning words understood
I was taken
By a taken girl
By a taking girl
I mean a taking world
Will it always be
What we think it should be?
Will reality
Stay a mystery?
But it’s taken
All my aching boy
It’s my dream of choice
It’s awakened in me
But it never was
Only was in dreams
All its pretty things
Are taken, boy
Downers
That’s something she doesn’t see fitting in her life
But then, how could you after you heard all the stories?
And then, someone says people can see all dimensions
And
He runs off kissing the trees
And I’m taken
By a taken girl
By a taking girl
I mean our taking world
Will it always be
What we think it should be?
Will realities
Stay a mystery?
But she’s taken
All my aching boy
She’s my dream of choice
She’s awakened in me
But it never was
Only was in dreams
All her pretty things
To be taken, boy
