Mushroom River Lyrics

Mushroom River lyrics

The trees are alive

They held their arms up high

And with a whisper they sighed

Your name against the wind



Your skin was so prized

Your head grew out to cover

Your new blisters

I've tried

To learn all that you're saying



I used to be you

And you used to be me

Her body is a drug

That's why you've been so crazy

We are the things that were

And we shall be them again

Although these were our dreams

We'll never wake from them



That's when someone spoke

The crippled ripped a piece off

And his legs were not broke

And stood up over me



I watched as he choked

And threw up all those shrooms

That had been buried

I woke

With you next to me



I used to be you

And you used to be me

Her body is a drug

That's why you've been so crazy

We are the things that were

And we shall be them again

Although these were our dreams

You will never wake from them



Hello wanderer I

Wish I never talked to her I

So much to say



Hello magic mirror please

Two spoons will stand again there

There is so much to see



And hello honey child

You sure can drive me wild

I wish you let me be



And hello stranger, stranger

I hate to put your life in danger

You are the one I see



You watched your life go by

Scratch out the warning signs

I watched the dessert spill

Just as the ghost walked out
