about

Track 7 of Dog Catcher by Leftmore

lyrics

The skin that you're in makes my confidence sin,
makes the towers I built turn their backs to the wind,
turns my words all to snakes, my thoughts all abate their will.
The mercury spilled, its brilliant color's revealed,
and all the levees that broke, they can't be rebuilt.
The toy you once held slowly fastens its grip.
And it won't let go! It won't let go of you!
The wings you receive as the pendulum swings
make the sky open up to concede all its dreams.
The truth about death, I'm caught between heaven and hell.
The men in their steads, mighty pens in their hands,
write the stories we read about the blood and the sand.
The book we all held stands a guard at your cell.
Now it won't let go! It won't let go of you!

Leftmore Denver, Colorado

Leftmore is an indie acoustic rock act from Colorado, started in 2005 by Matthew Shaw and Joe Ziegler.

Matt rejoined with Chris Doxtator on drums and Geoff Brent on bass guitar. The lineup now vacillates between the solo, duo, and quartet conditionally based on time-space. ... more
