Libby Rodenbough - The Kitchen Lyrics

Waste in the kitchen
Little spiders on the wall
Leaning in to catch the smell of bed sheets coming up

I could not believe the sound of the world this morning

Far from the islands
Not a mountaintop in sight
But it's a pretty place when it sits a while in your eyes

I could not believe the sound of the world this morning
I thought that you had left your phone behind
To sing its bird song the way it does to make you rise
I waited for the end to come
Why do some things keep on?

Waste in the kitchen
Where we left our wild feast
I can't remember why we had to go so suddenly

Cold in the young light
We were always cautious this way
Looking down to see if there was a table in our name

I could not believe the sound of the world this morning
I thought that you had left your phone behind
To sing its bird song the way it does to make you rise
I waited for the end to come
Are they waiting for the end of us?

I could not believe the sound of the world
I could not believe the sound of the world
I could not believe the sound of the world this morning
