Mimicking Birds - Dead Weight lyrics
[Mimicking Birds - Dead Weight lyrics]
I am a corpse, you are a corpse
Look, we're just corpses moving
Without a course
I'm a corpse, you are a corpse
And we're all the same
I am a corpse, you are a corpse
Yep, we're just corpses moving
Without a course
Yeah, and we'll all keep moving
Well you know the only dead weight
That exists in the buoyant world today is
The kind that lies in the
Minds of human beings
And you know the only easy way
To get out of the dark end of space unscathed
Is to cling to that shivering
Orbit until it's complete
But war is all around
I see planes fly too high in the sky
And we have got to stop
Before we all keel over and die
I am a corpse, you are a corpse
Look we're just corpses moving
Without a course
I'm a corpse, you are a corpse
And we're all the same
And after the singing and the moving again
Again, we'll all be moving
And the only logical way
To maintain your bomb shelters that
Fell to a vague shape is to play the enemy
Or pray that they don't know your
Position and you proceed to invade
Your only sane way
To get around all the crowded
Mounds of arranged waste
Is to decompose as one
Peel off here 'fore their monkey suit's
Reveal burned bones of war
It's supported deep beneath the ground
I hear them marching around
And we have wanted to retreat
Before we bleed more blood in defeat
Someday this will all blow over
You know someday this will all freeze over
And then another day, yeah
This will all boil over you know someday
Soon, soon real soon
Soon oh, real soon
Look, we're just corpses moving
Without a course
I'm a corpse, you are a corpse
And we're all the same
I am a corpse, you are a corpse
Yep, we're just corpses moving
Without a course
Yeah, and we'll all keep moving
Well you know the only dead weight
That exists in the buoyant world today is
The kind that lies in the
Minds of human beings
And you know the only easy way
To get out of the dark end of space unscathed
Is to cling to that shivering
Orbit until it's complete
But war is all around
I see planes fly too high in the sky
And we have got to stop
Before we all keel over and die
I am a corpse, you are a corpse
Look we're just corpses moving
Without a course
I'm a corpse, you are a corpse
And we're all the same
And after the singing and the moving again
Again, we'll all be moving
And the only logical way
To maintain your bomb shelters that
Fell to a vague shape is to play the enemy
Or pray that they don't know your
Position and you proceed to invade
Your only sane way
To get around all the crowded
Mounds of arranged waste
Is to decompose as one
Peel off here 'fore their monkey suit's
Reveal burned bones of war
It's supported deep beneath the ground
I hear them marching around
And we have wanted to retreat
Before we bleed more blood in defeat
Someday this will all blow over
You know someday this will all freeze over
And then another day, yeah
This will all boil over you know someday
Soon, soon real soon
Soon oh, real soon
