Bonnie “Prince” Billy
New Memory Box
[Verse 1]
You need to knock this one out of the park
Don’t let the monsters creep out of the dark
Your world is blazing your old home burning down
A revelation of a new show coming ‘round
[Chorus]
All of your voices have outlived their doom
Take off your old clothes and show me the moon
Throw out the old ones with fish-hooks and rocks
Put your body on and find a new memory box
[Verse 2]
No more to be lonely
No more to feel small
A tiny life might be the way through it all
Quietly raging, quietly wild
Your body containing an infinite child
[Chorus]
All of your voices have outlived their doom
Take off your old clothes and show me the moon
Throw out the old ones with fish hooks and rocks
Put your body on and find a new memory box
[Bridge]
This is the melody, baby, and this is way it is sung
Open your eyes wide so I can jump inside I’ve dreamed about you all along
[Chorus]
All of your voices have outlived their doom
Take off your old clothes and show me the moon
Throw out the old ones with fish hooks and rocks
Put your body on and find a new memory box
Put your body on and find a new memory box
