Number 9 Lyrics

Wide awake, keep up
Fallin′ shapes, don't die
On my tongue, a lap
On my lap, a gun
In the gun, a kiss
Let it blow your mind
′Til the dust returns
To the number nine
(Wow, wow)
(Wow, wow)


Break lights off in the distance, don't follow me (wow, wow)
And the sky came crawlin' out beneath the waves (wow, wow)
Crashin′ into the sun, ain′t no stoppin' me
And when the checkered flags are waved
There′ll be no one else and nothing left of me

Wide awake, keep up
Fallin' shapes, don′t die
On my tongue, a lap
On my lap, a gun
In the gun, a kiss
Let it blow your mind
'Til the dust returns
To the number (wow)

Break lights off in the distance, don′t follow me (wow, wow, wow)
And the sky came crawlin' out beneath the waves (wow, wow, wow)
Crashin' into the sun, ain′t no stoppin′ me (wow, wow, wow)
When the checkered flags are waved (wow, wow, wow)
There'll be no one else and nothing left of me

Wide awake, keep up
Fallin′ shapes, don't die
On my tongue, a lap
On my lap, a gun
In the gun, a kiss
Let it blow your mind
′Til the dust returns
To the number nine

I am the grim reaper
I'm the streets sweeper
I am the nightmare dream-stalker
There′s not too much that gets past my two eyes (wow, wow, wow)
Even at night, better think twice
Feel your deep-rooted emotions (wow, wow, wow)
Fulfill the devotions
Don't you get away, I'll be on your skin like lotion
Livin′ inside your brain, I′m the rizz, and your mind's open (There′ll be no one else and nothing left of me)

Wide awake, keep up
Fallin' shapes, don′t die
On my tongue, a lap
On my lap, a gun
In the gun, a kiss
Let it blow your mind
'Til the dust returns
To the number nine

(With my eyes wide shut)
Wide awake, keep up
Fallin′ shapes, don't die
(And my mind goes blank)
On my tongue, a lap
On my lap, a gun
(When I don't know the time)
In the gun, a kiss
Let it blow your mind

′Til the dust returns
To the number nine
