Wrestles With Death Songtext
von Rae Spoon

I asked the stars
To pull away time
I asked the stars
They said, "No, no, no," they said, "No, no, no"

I′ve got a friend who wrestles with death
Pulled me out when I was a mess
Told me the moves aren't already set
So, I wrote my way away from the edge

I asked the sky
To blow out my light
I asked the sky
It said, "No, no, no," it said, "No, no, no"

I′ve got a friend who sleeps with mercy
I don't know why she would have picked me
She taught me how to stay still
So, that our minds don't go for the kill


I asked the sea
To swallow me
I asked the sea
It said, "No, no, no," it said, "No, no, no"

I′ve got a friend who wrestles with death
Pulled me out when I was a mess
Told me the moves aren′t already set
So, I wrote my way away from the edge

I've got a friend who sleeps with mercy
I don′t know why she would have picked me
She taught me how to stay still
So, that our minds don't go for the kill

I′ve got a friend who wrestles with death
Pulled me out when I was a mess
Told me the moves aren't already set
So, I wrote my way away from the edge

I asked the stars
They said, "No, no, no," they said, "No, no, no"
