Modest Mouse - Wooden Soldiers lyrics
[Modest Mouse - Wooden Soldiers lyrics]
The tides roll in
Didn't plan it, didn't plan it
Different planets stare down on us
Never blinking, sort of winking
Indifferent as a ceiling
Observing that we're kneeling in
The sands building plans
Making plans in the sand as the tides roll in
I've been sitting in the
Stove 'cause outside, it's sure been cold
The garbage can's refrigerated since that's
Where the food goes
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Wooden soldiers storm through
Burning buildings, on the top floor
Lives the zoo kings' neckties
Prеventing them from breathing
Oh, it's such a fuzzy feeling, oh
It's such a fuzzy feeling making plans
Gasolinе flows out the ends of
Matchsticks used as pens
And I've been writing some pretty
Big checks with them
I gave the boat a person's
Name, so when it sinks
I'll know who to blame the tiger isn't tame
But it's toothless just the same
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in making plans
These fuckers wanted guilt
They tore me down and I rebuilt
Much better, oh, much better than before
In India, they make mugs
You throw them down, they turn to mud
Pull it out and make them as they were before
Since we shop at the same store
But hate each other at the core
And neither one is getting a fair deal
Sell it all on sex appeal
How you currently feel
Don't need any, just buy one
The second one will be a steal
Hashtaggin', photo-braggin'
No one's even sort of real
No wonder no one feels better than before
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in
Making plans, making plans, making plans
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in making plans
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in making plans
Making plans in the sands as
The tides roll in making plans
It's level at the peak our words don't speak
Calm down, retreat
Me just being here now is enough for me
It's level at the peak (It's level)
Our words don't speak (It's level)
You just being here being you's enough for me
You just being here being you's enough for me
It's level at the peak (It's level)
Find your breath, don't speak (It's level)
Just being here being you's enough for me
Just being here being you's enough for me
It's level at the peak (It's level)
Even death just may not be (It's level)
We'll cross that bridge sometime and see
But just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
Just being here now is enough for me
