Ants of the Sky Songtext

von Between The Buried And Me

My teeth taste funny today...
They seem more jagged than normal.
I've been told 3x
That I have been grinding them like the gears during my dream hours...
I wonder if it's just my thoughts fusing into one frequent dream...
One which parts with the night.
The night.

I saw them dragging the other day.
Other day.
Scraping their knees
And elbows against the bumpy pavement.
Blood tracks have been filling the streets.

Seems the high horse is taking them all home...
I can't leave myself out. [2x]
Myself out.

*INSTRUMENTALPART 1*

Why should we sleep today...
Why should we awake tomorrow?
We can just pop back a few and drift though this pre-programmed flight.
We can just pop back a few and drift though this pre-programmed flight.
Across all oceans...a windy, noisy trek...
Across all oceans...this seems to be what I've needed.
Across all oceans...the view used to be better Across all oceans...lands are growing into one.
We wanted it this way.

*INSTRUMENTALPART 2*

We were brought up to grow into one. 2x
I'm going to fly up soon
And seek other lands.
The soothing air of flight...
A bird's eye view
Into what I've always
Imagined life could be.
Will it be sought after?
It might just be useless
Writing and ideas that laziness will corrupt in the end.
Bones of dust need hardening.
I think the prescription
I think the prescription is found.

Sleep on/ Sleep on... fly on.
In your mind, you can fly. [4x]
Sleep on

My teeth grin oddly
Today... today...
They seem to gleam more than normal.
Maybe it will be noticed.

*INSTRUMENTALPART 3*

The walking dead.

The walking dead.
