Of Montreal feat. The Lost Trees the past is a grotesque animal with the lost trees

Select language to translate this lyric

The past is a grotesque animal
And in its eyes you see
How completely wrong you can be
How completely wrong you can be
The sun is out, it melts the snow that fell yesterday
Makes you wonder why it bothered
Makes you wonder
It's so embarrassing to need someone like I do you
How can I explain I need you here and not here too
How can I explain I need you here and not here too
I'm flunking out
I'm flunking out
I'm gone, I'm just gone
But at least I author my own disaster
at least I author my own disaster
Performance breakdown and I don't want to hear it
I'm just not available
Things could be different but they're not
Things could be different but they're not
The mousy girl screams, Violence! Violence!
The mousy girl screams, Violence! Violence!
She gets hysterical
because they're both so mean
And it's my favorite scene
And none of our secrets are physical
none of our secrets are physical
And none of our secrets are physical now
