Lyrics

Husk

Terrible wine

Set you free

Damn slap-happy sleep

C'mon out, c'mon out

Oh mercy, mercy me

Terrible wine

Draws you out

Damn slap-happy in the dugout

C'mon down, c'mon down

Oh mercy, mercy me

And when you're smoke, how do you speak?

Smoke signals?

Write on trees?

C'mon out, c'mon out

Write with me
