We are wanderers of the grass You can only see us through a looking glass We are explorers with hands of mud We leave our tracks all over each other Down the hill to the great estate Down the path and in we break We are wanderers; what a story we tell Of all our visits to the deepest hell Where the devil would fear us And all the others draw near Down there none of them could dare To get it right, or get a thing And in the firelight my descent ends abruptly Your eyes bid me return We are wonderers of our lives Best of friends with space and time Up in the sky to the great estate Up we fly past a pearly gate We are wonderers; like why in the hell They would deny us and all the stories we tell And in the sunlight my ascent ends abruptly Your mouth says to return 'Cause I'll never know why the devil should fear us And I'll never learn why they just cant be true We have wondered all our lives Left to wander with the fireflies We are explorers lying in the mud I'll lap it up off you

You're no stranger to this foggy land and sea So light the way yourself and lead me With a sputtering candle in some misery 'Cause it's dripping waxy tears onto your skin Well the wicked trees put wooden forks down And suffocate the room and sit around Watching flailing feet hang with no sound And the brightest way you know is going down The hungry crack that creep along Will tunnel the earth beneath you In case betrayal is in your mood You're no damsel in distress to be rescued And you'll never spend a night alone again With all the countless souls who need to be rescued On a planet where you can't escape or run With a soggy grace you brave the sand and sleet While everybody gawks and stands around Waiting for something to break them from a reverie So the only way you talk is talking down The tunnels below will haunt your steps And tell the world they need you In case betrayal is in their mood CHORUS Sing a lonely song about you Take a lonely breath to stay you

Cretaceous 03:48
Beside the glint of triumph in your eye The losers have to wait somewhere outside All chilly in the rain that sprinkles discriminate-ly On shoulders cloaked in grime They learn to scream They learn to hide We learn to die Every captain: know your place And every captive: be not afraid And all monsters in the dark Will run amok and won't be stopped And with a lie the future comes to pass With stubborn folks awaiting in the caste Cold months when we cry out all alone We learn to climb out of halls of stone Every captain: know your place And every captive: be not afraid And all the villains in the night, Will you defeat them? Afraid to lose a fight So up we fly- all the rest of us We'll get there if we try
