oakley creek - the beths lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s a creek i would walk to when my house felt like a locked room
lean on old wooden bridges watch the eels playing cool
i could walk a little further down the dirt path on the shoulder
to the biggest waterfall my city limits could produce

[pre*chorus]
boy it fell
kept on falling
biting down
cutting rock
slow erosion

[chorus]
leave me here on the stone
i’m only here to feed mosquitos
only skin, only blood
a little less now than there was

[verse 2]
in january ‘23 the creek became a raging sea
a great torrential flood that rippеd the bridges from the basе
the soft slope of the valley ravaged, cracked, and wounded badly
fallen giants breathing heavily across the severed track

[pre*chorus]
they fell
stayed fallen
roots exposed
reaching high
something’s growing
[chorus]
leave me here by the bones
i’m only here to feed mosquitos
only skin, only blood
a little less now than there was
a little less now than there was

[verse 3]
i still go, it’s been a year now
pass the chain link fence that keeps out
with the bridges all still blown out
you can’t amble anymore
overgrown a bit and i take off my shoes to cross it
find the current has forgotten
how it felt to break the world

[pre*chorus]
if i fall
i’ll fall in
soaking wet
fallen pride
till we’re laughing

[chorus]
leave me here
let me go
i’m only here to feed mosquitos
only skin, only blood
a little less now than there was
[chorus]
just leave me here
on my own
i only breathe to feed the egos
only flesh, only blood
i’m letting go of what i’m not
a little less now than there was
a little less now than there was
