Bright Eyes Coat Check Dream Song Lyrics

Coat Check Dream Song Lyrics

Shrill as a choir of children

Urgent like the first day of May

False and inflatable feeling

Tugs at my senses

Big as the Macy's Parade



One brick on top of another

Such is the measure of man

Planets are inset like diamonds

On a gravity halo

Eternity's wedding band



I slept with that dealer all summer

The ecstasy's still in my spine

Coat check, I couldn't remember

Walked into the winter

Came out on the other side



And in the south, the sun is shining

Back in the east, the lights went out



Stuck on a ladder to heaven

On trial way back in The Hague

Lullaby sounds from the engine

In my Styrofoam coffin

Asleep on the interstate



Black globes, old symbols of freedom

A murderer still on the lam

Cities encircled in iron

On a great silver beltway

Democracy's shackled hands



Seance that brought us together

Objects we move with our minds

Coat check and I lost the number

Short sleeves in the winter

Fell back through the other side



Out in the west, the cars are crashing

Up in the north, the ice gave out



Saada Tekmel B'Lhouria

Saada Tekmel

Saada Tekmel B'Lhouria

Tekmel B'Lhouria

Houria
