lyrics

Don't forget to focus close on the air above your nose
Let the watercolors bleed down the aisle of sandy feet
And out across the sugarcane through the mountains' swelling veins
All the earth is coming free - it's a river running to the sea

Hold on to the metal
Collide with the arms beside you
Be afraid of what's behind you
Get inside of what's inside you

Roll out the thunder
Let's fling some water at the ground
No hesitation
You got to push the air to make a sound

Don't you slip on the flatbed
You'll wake up on a rooster shed
Sweating every vibration
Choking on your cries
Bouncing baby is dancing
To the rhythm of the rattling
Had a conversation with the devil in his eye
Had a revelation, you're never gonna die
