So Says I (Album) - The Shins[00:00:00]
An address to the golden door[00:00:07]
I was strumming on a stone again [00:00:10]
Pulling teeth from the pimps of gore[00:00:13]
When hatched a tragic opera in my mind [00:00:16]
And it told of a new design in which every soul is duty bound[00:00:20]
To uphold all the statutes of boredom[00:00:26]
Therein lies the fatal flaw of the red age[00:00:31]
Because it was nothing like we'd ever dreamt[00:00:33]
Or lust for life had gone away with the rent we hated[00:00:35]
And becase it made no money[00:00:39]
Nobody saved no one's life this time[00:00:41]
So we burned all our uniforms[00:00:47]
And let nature take it's course again[00:00:50]
And the big onese just eat all the little ones[00:00:54]
That sends us back to the drawing board[00:00:57]
In my darkest hours[00:01:11]
We have all asked for some[00:01:14]
Angel to come[00:01:18]
Sprinkle his dust all around[00:01:21]
But all our crying voices they can't turn it around[00:01:25]
And you've had some crazy conversations of your own[00:01:31]
We've got rules and maps and guns in our backs[00:01:46]
But we still can't just behave ourselves [00:01:50]
Even if to save our own lives[00:01:53]
So says I:[00:01:56]
We are a brutal kind[00:01:57]
'Cause this is nothing like we'd ever dreamt[00:02:12]
Tell Sir Thomas More we've got another failed attempt[00:02:15]
'Cause if it makes them money[00:02:19]
They might just give you life this time[00:02:20]
