Cosmos and demos Lyrics

Cosmos and demos by Devendra Banhart


I’ve never told this story to another living soul, Oh for fear it might awaken and the story would unfold.
Candles in a courtyard and a paper coloured cat,
while demos danced on feathers and cosmos held the hat,
next came their profession and a paper coloured purr,
an umber armed albino and the crowd began to stir.
I slid behind a linden to swallow what I’d seen.
I slid behind a linden to swallow what I’d seen
Threads of grass and thimbles,
Needles made of hair,
Moves a dance that stumbles limbs laughed in the air.
Threads of grass and thimbles,
Needles made of hair,
Moves a dance that stumbles limbs laughed in the air

And on the day you fall whose name would you call?
The only thing you taught me is the only thing you know, how to start a fire once the umber cease to glow.
The only thing you taught me is the only thing you know, how to start a fire once the umber cease to glow.
