Steam Powered Giraffe
3:12(Hrmms) Times a wastin’ I’m mechanically alone Life is teeming with signs that I’m on my own Wither a wanderer my heart has built a home Straying through the vines I remain overgrown Sand is slipping through the eye upon the glass Vision dipping watching seeds turn into grass Hanging in tight because these feelings still will pass But cannot wait because I was not built to last It’s not the way to rock my boat (Ooo-whoa-oh) It took too long to help these trees learn how to float (Ooo-whoa-oh) And if I stay too long I feel we’ll all turn into stone (Stow-ooo-oh-own) Scent of the sand and the brave unknown Mind is dripping underneath the water shown Subdivided seem much deeper than is known In the darkness light is spinning through the cone We’ll find our way sinking through time we will atone Waves are falling down I cannot hear the crash Sinking faster as the water starts to thrash Don’t have much longer waters dripping on the dash Rise up higher gifted visions seem to flash It’s not the way to rock my boat (Ooo-whoa-oh) It took too long to help these trees learn how to float (Ooo-whoa-oh) And if I stay too long I feel we’ll all turn into stone (Stow-ooo-oh-own) Scent of the sand and the brave unknown Scent of the sand and the brave unknown And it’s much cooler way down (way down) At the bottom of the sea, nobody could foresee that’d it’d be Cooler way down (way down) At the bottom of the sea, amidst the vast debris (and it’s much) And it’s much cooler way down (way down) At the bottom of the sea, nobody could foresee that’d it’d be Cooler way down (way down) At the bottom of the sea, amidst the vast debris Times a wastin’ I’m mechanically alone Life is teeming with signs that I’m on my own And if I stay too long I feel we’ll all turn into stone (Stow-ooo-oh-own) Scent of the sand and the brave unknown Scent of the sand and the brave unknown Scent of the sand and the brave unknown
