Testo Take Shelter

In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
They told them everything in the house had burned
And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth

In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
And every night the fearful dreams emerge She takes her shelter like a flightless bird

A life worth living? “I don’t know”
A wolf gone hiding in the snow
A love worth killing just to show
Just what it is to let it go
Just what it is to let him go

In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
They told them everything in the house had burned
And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth

She lay down with him there for weeks
She heard his body start to creak And when he turned to her to speak
That’s when he knew his time had peaked
That’s when he knew their time had peaked

In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
They told them everything in the house had burned
And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth

In my mind it's all the way things were
I remember how the family heard
And every night the fearful dreams emerge
She takes her shelter like a flightless bird
