Wild Turkey Songtext
von Amythyst Kiah

Late at night, when I feel alone
I cry in darkness and scream into the unknown
′Cause she's never coming back
No, she′s never coming back

Body in water for days and days
Hopes for a safe return, my hope's in vain
'Cause she′s never coming back
No, she′s never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When your soul dies, you just can't hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh, Lord, will I ever feel right again?


Tried so hard to be an automaton
Body of steel and wired circuits for my backbone
′Cause she's never coming back
No, she′s never coming back

Wild turkey in the car seat
The bottle's empty, I hope it gave her some relief
′Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When your soul dies, you just can′t hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh, Lord, will I ever feel?

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When your soul dies, you just can′t hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh, Lord, will I ever feel, will I ever feel
Right again?
