Dragon Slayer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I watch the red fire rise
And become all the water
I watch the red fire breathe
How many days will it blind?
[Verse 2]
I saw a red kite fly
Was it held by an anchor?
I saw a red kite burn
I saw a string gone astray
[Pre-Chorus]
Enemies change their minds
Donât think youâre above it
Infinite blasts of light on wooded cares
Elements in the mind are tipping the public
Focusing on design from burning stairs
[Chorus]
Hold them, let them bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them, hard to see, hard to see
Hear thĐ” seagulls
Hold them, let thДm bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them hard to see hard to see
Hear the sea
[Post-Chorus]
Slayers
Soul stars
[Verse 3]
I heard the red fire whine
(Slayers)
And simmer in the water
(Soul stars)
Where the red fire wanders
(Slayers)
Iâll walk in its veins, veins
(Soul stars)
[Pre-Chorus]
Enemies change their minds
Donât think youâre above it
Infinite blasts of light on wooded cares
Elements in the mind are tipping the public
Focusing on design from burning stairs
[Chorus]
Hold them, let them bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them, hard to see, hard to see
Hear the seagulls
Hold them, let them bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them, hard to see, hard to see
Hear the seagulls
Hold them, let them bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them, hard to see, hard to see
Hear the seagulls
Hold them, let them bleed, let them bleed
Find the main road
Hold them, hard to see, hard to see
Hear the seagulls
Strung With Everything Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't peek, it won't last that long, or rarely
It's really new every day
You need that click and they wrote it wrong, delivery
Our terrarium moaned
[Verse 2]
No sleeping in, there's a natural clicking
That can be heard in the kinks
You need to forget the trouble maker
Dislike the silicone heads
[Verse 3]
Fresh sneakers in Babylon get dirty
But we're digging that way
I cut my pace, no more racing urges
How many days do we have?
I like some pressure and it likes pleasing
Some find thДir way in a hearse
The summДr's here but the time is crying
It spent all year in your head
[Pre-Chorus]
I've got this world (I think)
I build a thing and it does
I do believe there's a conscious in things
Don't believe in the time
Just the inside of you
Feel it all collapse
I think that things will fall apart
The grass will find its shape again
[Chorus]
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
[Verse 4]
They'll move west when the winters biting
Build hotels for their thirst
They'll move east when the deserts drying
I moved in, you checked out
[Pre-Chorus]
We've got this heart
It speaks out a thing and we feel
The air sinks in
There's a mist on the sea
There's a clearing for rest
There's a piece of glass
It went into your foot
The fire and bleeds and soaks us out
The grass can't find the green again
[Chorus]
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
[Bridge]
Let's say tonight you and me
We'll watch the sky fall into pieces
And for a moment imagine strings
Holding the trees from falling down
You know I would not be afraid
With your head against my shoulder
And even though all hearts are strange
We're all strung with everything
[Chorus]
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
The sun's no better off lately
The sun's no better off now
[Outro]
Let's say tonight you and me
We'll watch the sky fall into pieces
And for a moment imagine strings
Holding the trees from falling down
You know I would not be afraid
With your head against my shoulder
And even though all hearts are strange
We're all strung with everything
Let's say tonight you and me
We'll watch the sky fall into pieces
And for a moment imagine strings
Holding the trees from falling down
You know I would not be afraid
With your head against my shoulder
And even though all hearts are strange
We're all strung with everything
Passerâby Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was my favorite day
Before the movie show
Until the fight broke out
In front of floral scenes
Faces got all bent up
âBeat him real goodâ she called
I saw a distant girl
Point at a hummingbird
[Verse 2]
I felt the burning sun
How does it last so long?
Out in the Pisgah trees
Thereâs a discarded song
Left for my open ears
Left by the Passer-by
Who had imagined I
Would come looking for life
[Chorus]
Bumped a passer-by
Who smiled as if he knew me
He didnât have a face I recognized
But I keep on thinking about your smilĐ”
Thanked a passer-by
For pointing out a thing
I probably would have missДd without her eyes
Now I miss the passer-by
Bumped a passer-by
Who smiled as if he knew me
He didnât have a face I recognized
But I keep on thinking about your smile
Thanked a passer-by
For pointing out a thing
I probably would have missed without her eyes
Now I miss the passer-by
[Outro]
Passer-by stepping on
Always stepping, always passing
Passer-by stepping on
Always stepping, always passing
Passer-by stepping on
Always stepping, always passing
Passer-by stepping on
Always stepping, always passing
Thank you passer-by
