I Lay to Rest (California) Lyrics

It's only California
It's only California
Oh I lay to rest
Oh now, money-maker
The hands of the devil's sister
Oh they laid me down

There must be a way out
There must be a way out
There's a ghost inside of you
And I can see it peering through

Oh I lay, oh under
The oak tree
In the dead of winter
Oh I lay to rest
A winged boy fell from the tree
And oh he landed right next to me
The devil's fruit inside of me
And how my wings lay so dormantly

Oh you were a body
You were a ghost
And now you are nothing
The dark it up and rose
And toward the light it took you
And melted your wings
'Cause you were a body
And now you are nothing
And I touched
Oh his feathers
Cow hide
Hands of leather
Oh you are a man

Oh wax wings they wouldn't stay
And so our love melted away
Toward the sun so right and fair
And then I saw you drop in mid air
