Frightened Rabbit - Off lyrics
[Frightened Rabbit - Off lyrics]
Just a gentle mouth to a smitten ear
No technology here
Such heady chemistry can't be engineered
We'll use no binary code
No pixilated template to contain us both
Ignore the scurrying roads
We'll stay right here and
Want for nothing more
And as the earth eats it'self
Swallows us whole we will set out ourselves
And switch everything off
No machinery here
No chain smoking factories with
Their monotone sneer
There's no technology here
No damning indictments or digital sin
So can't we both disappear?
Run away and play dead like I did last year
We'll need nobody else at all
Sheltered and happy in our candlelit hole
As the earth eats it'self, swallows us whole
We can lie here hidden
Pull the wires from the wall
Oh, as the earth eats it'self
Swallows us whole we will set out ourselves
And switch everything off
