Lyrics
0:10On a walk in a fragile state
0:14Weird angles coming over the wires
0:18Back home we got girls in braids
0:21And they're on roller skates and they roll any way they like
0:28From my town I can only see down
0:32Down my nose to the fish in the barrels
0:36But they are the wiles of human life
0:39There are pity nights and a ray of gentle lights
0:48So tonight
0:52Dance and cry
0:56The dead alive
1:06Monuments were awfully dense
1:10I float by in a daze on the freeway
1:14You can whine of our different times
1:17But me I'm fine with a view that is far away
1:24Were the mills in the valley to function
1:28Rain gonna fall on the hills where we hide
1:32Wash the blood and the guts to the ocean
1:36Leave the pike making everything alright
1:44So tonight
1:48Dance and cry
1:52The dead alive
2:16So tonight
2:20Dance and cry
2:24The dead alive
2:36Figments
2:38Figments of imagination
2:42Figments of imagination figments of imagination
2:52Figments of imagination
2:54Figments of imagination
3:00Figments of imagination
3:04Figments of imagination
3:08Figments of imagination
3:12Figments of imagination
3:16Figments of imagination
3:20Figments of imagination
On a walk in a fragile state Weird angles coming over the wires Back home we got girls in braids And they're on roller skates and they roll any way they like From my town I can only see down Down my nose to the fish in the barrels But they are the wiles of human life There are pity nights and a ray of gentle lights So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive Monuments were awfully dense I float by in a daze on the freeway You can whine of our different times But me I'm fine with a view that is far away Were the mills in the valley to function Rain gonna fall on the hills where we hide Wash the blood and the guts to the ocean Leave the pike making everything alright So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive Figments Figments of imagination Figments of imagination figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination
