[Verse 1: swanskin]
Lethargic lifestock in a field
Swallowed by swarms of summer flies
As the seasons change, she will remain
Just waiting there to die
Rabid sheepdogs circle 'round
Hot wire fence keeps her inside
Resigned to naught, her silence fraught
She's sick of waiting for a sign
[Chorus: swanskin]
(Okay!)
(I didn't see ya)
(I'm Catbug!)
Summer malaise
Stuck in the Deep South
One of these days
I'm gonna get out
[Verse 2: swanskin, swanskin & Astra King]
Atticus will pray for me
He hopes I can be saved
I think we've known each other
Sincе 2008
Southerly extends hеr hand
But I don't want her help
How could she ever get me
When I don't get myself?
[Chorus: swanskin & Astra King]
Summer malaise
Stuck in the Deep South
One of these days
I'm gonna get out
Out of the cave
Fleeing the compound
Riddled with bullets
I'm lying face down
[Bridge: swanskin]
A man is burning brush on the other side of town
I hope the fire spreads and burns the farmland to the ground
[Verse 3: Astra King]
I pray to God, you shut up and talk about it
You bite the hand that would dare to feed you solace
No I don't get it, but I could try, I promise
Come on, be honest
(2, 3, 3)
Remember
When we (Hey Cassie)
We were just learning our Psalms
Hands tied together with yarn?
Oh did I do something wrong?
[Chorus: swanskin & Astra King]
Or maybe it's just
Summer malaise
Stuck in the Deep South
One of these days
I'm gonna get out
Out of the cave
Fleeing the compound
Riddled with bullets
I'm lying face down
