Alina Simone - Saw Edged Grass lyrics

You just took off

Running through the saw-edged grass

We didn't even turn we knew you would come back

No one really knew

We tiptoed around the things that set you off

Like playing with Matches in the high dry grass

Run, run, there you go, over the creek bed

Why are the brilliant ones always so crazy

I know you love us more than you love your demands

But something keeps you running and only you can stop it

We let it go in silence

It takes off the edge

Sometimes we wrap it up in silence

Cuz it's the only way to rescue the wildest friend

Oh no

Oh no, there you go, running through the saw-edge grass

Turn, turn oh you burn, on the horizon

Hair whips round your face, tumble through the weekend

Underneath the overpass, over the off ramp

Something keeps you running and we can only guess

Digging up the things you hid under the footbridge

Scratches from the branches will only give you away

Only give you away, only give you away, away
