Deer Head Lyrics

Dad brought the rock down on its head, down on its head
Deer head
Splitting its skull (deer skull) open in half
Open

And the blood shone like VHS tape out of its brain and severed leg
It was the right thing to do

Brought down that rock just like my daddy showed me
Said now there's a quiet in you
Came with the harmers, a weird sad place
Where now I find a quiet in me too

Oh lay me down on my childhood bed, thoroughly wild and without regret
Understood pain was just a thing our daddies knew

And if purity were quantified divide it in half each year you're alive
And I was happier before

Happier before
Happier, happier
