we fly fast with melted wings across the parking lot pavement
because innocence wasn't in the blue prints
and we walk the streets with holes in our feet
we are sacred and mishapen
we don't sleep, we thrive on the hours that go by
clapping our hands and dancing around
shaking our heads in cardboard crowns
so turn that bottle up we've got to make our escape
and get away from these clumsy bodies that are flawed by design
and cut off all the weak strings barely holding us
we're a new breed made out of old disease
and our voices can be heard all over the place
death can die and we'll just keep singing a song
we turned up the decibels and you'll just tremble when you see our sound
it's painted in the cement and dripping through the wires
we are everywhere, in the door handles and history books
yeah that was us laughing in the corner when it started to sink
because we are hollow and we echo with our heavy pulsing hearts
and we just floated right by the beginning
we can make friends just by waving our hands across our eyes
because it's not goodbye, we never say goodbye
it's just for every moment that can never finalize
so let's press our faces together for one last time
then walk away towards that neon light
with joints that don't connect and a vision that's split
we don't see the clear black and white extremes
we are the in between
we just want to tap our feet and shake our heads
and dance on the graves of the living dead
we won't ever die out or cease to be, we're telling you so
we're the ancient black vines in the churchyard that always grow
time can't touch us, we doged that bullet ages ago
and got ready for forever because we'll never die
death is just another crack in the ground
so watch your step and you won't slip in and slip away
crossing your heart as you fall hoping for instant grace
we throw our arms up and yell for a flood to wash away everything
all these dirty people and buildings and walking splintered beings
cause we'll just float on our backs and watch out for the cracks
right now right now don't you ever say goodbye,
you know that's just another neverending blackhole lie
we'll follow you barely hanging in the sky with our melted wings and holes in our feet,
swinging on the tails of clouds and telling you to look down
and we have been since all these years in the making
we've been misbehaving since creation
