Songtext Natural disaster Kevin Morby

Natural disaster

I'm up in the morning
Then back down in the evening
It's a mystery, baby, what happens in between them
They say don't you medicate?
Just breathe or meditate
But I need something faster for my before and afters
My come up or comedowns from some natural disasters
'Cause prairies, they wildfire
Seas hurricane
The hills, they all landslide, tornadoes strip the plains
And my whole earthquakes
When I find a good thing
Not sure that I deserve it
Like how did I earn this?
I'm afraid I'll just hurt it
Oh, so I burn it down and collect the insurance
And document my pain, keep faces and names
Remember places and dates
Remember how they did me wrong
Remember how they changed me
And I'll take a picture, a before-and-after
Of the fault lines on my face from all my tears and my laughter
The come-up or comedowns from some natural disaster'Cause the low lands will flood, the desert will dry up
The hills will landslide, volcanoes will erupt
And you will fall in love

That love may not want you
Then that love will haunt you
And no, you won't die
They'll just simply leave your side
Disappear into the mystery
Disappear into the little wide
And you'll cry, cry, baby, you'll cry

I'm up in the morning
Then back down in the evening
What happens between is a dream
Our before and afters
Our tears and our laughter
Songs on the Stratocaster
Our prayers stuck up in the rafters
Our epilogues after our chapters
And a natural disaster
I'm out in the flames and the rain

Come to me, baby, come to me now
Come to me, baby, come to me now
Come to me, baby, come to me now
Come to me, baby, come to me now, mm-hmm
To me now, mm-hmm
To me now, mm-hmm
To me now, mm-hmm
