lyrics

I AM THE FOLD

And I'll walk with strangers
Tempering itch and itch
My brother knows my name

And I'll wait for ages
Watching you dip and dip
But sister it's a shame

Pray for those, those silly souls like me
My feet jump in, they tend to disagree
My eyes enrol, to keep them company

Yes I fell, yes I am the fold
Think at best, reinforce the mould
Punch drunk love, oh my heart stays gold

One more got wasted
Weigh him in sip by sip
To criticised acclaim

And I'll meet your wager
Lay it on adverse odds
We hold, we feel the same

Pray for those, those silly souls like me
My feet jump in, they tend to disagree
My eyes enrol, to keep them company

Yes I fell, yes I am the fold
Think at best, reinforce the mould
Punch drunk love, oh my heart stays gold

Running blind's as far from liberating as I thought
-World you snake!- I say, do all you can to stay uncaught.

Yes I fell, yes I am the fold
Think at best, reinforce the mould
Punch drunk love, oh my heart stays gold
