Jenny Hval – Lions lyrics

[Verse 1: Vivian Wang and Jenny Hval]
Look at these trees
Look at this grass
Look at those clouds
Look at them now

[Rhett?], look at them now
Now, look at them now, look at them now
Take a closer look
Take a closer look
Study the raindrops on the leaves
Study the raindrops on the leaves
Study the ants on the ground
Lying all over the place
Study the ground, the brown porous topsoil
Lying out of place
Its softness, the mushrooms
I am blossoming
And the strange blue flowers that grow near them
Study this and ask yourself: "Where is God?"
Blossoming

[
[Refrain]: Jenny Hval]
Back and forth and rounding up
Avoiding the loops of the mind

[Verse 2: Vivian Wang and Jenny Hval]
This place doesn't know
Look at me
This place doesn't care
I feel tenderly [?]
About the holy scriptures, or how to pronounce and live by the ecclesiastical
In [?]
This is a no man's land
I am [?]
This is a no god's land
I am empty body
Look at those trees again
Must be [?]
Look at the bark
But not [?]
Look at their height
Are they not darker than the trees at home?
I am making moves with tenderness
Are they not smaller?
[?]
Listen to the wind and the rattling leaves

[?]
It's whispering a pagan psalm

[
[Refrain]: Jenny Hval]
Back and forth and rounding up
Avoiding the loops of the mind, mind
Back and forth and rounding up
Avoiding the loops of the mind, mind
To become the [?] of the mind, mind

[Outro: Jenny Hval]
I am blossoming
I am out of the place

[?] lions
