So we had one of the most insane thunderstorms I’ve ever witnessed in Calgary last night. So insane in fact, that when it woke me up I was certain we were under some kind of attack. After regaining my composure, and putting down my golf club, I found myself on the couch listening to some tunes. O My Heart is the title-track from Mother Mother ’s sophomore album , released in September of 2008. More recently, the band has been nominated for the 2nd annual Verge Music Award in both “Artist of the Year” and “Album of the Year” categories; If you want to help decide the winners, voting is open to the public until August 31st here . Oh my heart, it’s a fish out of water Oh my heart, it’s a fish on the rocks and it bakes in the bad sun Oh my heart, it’s a rock in the gutter Oh my heart, it’s a rock and great boulder and stuck in the gutter And I throw my heart back to the ocean But it don’t go far, it come back floating And I watch it wash it up with the dead fish But it ain’t quite dead, it just is like this Oh my heart, it’s a house in tornado, Oh my heart, it’s a house in the sky in the eye of tornado Oh my heart, it’s a roof in El nino Oh my heart, it’s a roof made of straw in the jaw of El nino And I pour my heart a new foundation But it don’t set far, it just stays shaking And I scratch my name, I scratch my name in But it don’t set heart, it gets mixed back in Bam bam bam, bam bam bam, bam bam bam, bam… Oh my heart, it’s a fish out of water Oh my heart, it’s a rock in the gutter Oh my heart, it’s the black in a rainbow Oh my heart, it’s so damn so cold, so damn cold And I throw my heart into the fire ‘Cos I want to set my heart on fire And I watch it try befriending embers But the ice don’t melt in mid-December Oh my heart, it’s a fish out of water Oh my heart, it’s a fish on the rocks and it bakes in the bad sun Related posts: Hey Rosetta! – Red Heart Talking Heads – Once in a Lifetime Wolf Parade – I’ll Believe in Anything Tokyo Police Club – Your English Is Good Stars – One More Night (Your Ex-Lover Remains Dead)
