From the deep
Descending
This crushing embrace.
From the deep
Descending
This crushing embrace
From the deep
Descending
This crushing embrace
In the darkness we devour.
There will be no escape.
I'm dreaming of what you are.
Von dem Tiefen
Komme ich allein.
In der Dunkelheit, bin ich dein.
Ich will dein Leben nehmen.
Wir können die Dunkelheit stehlen.
Ja.
I'm dreaming of what you are.
I'm dreaming of what you are.
(Always dreaming baby, always dreaming.)
I'm dreaming of what you are.
(That feeling baby, you got that feeling.)
I'm dreaming of what you are.

We're The Magnapinna, here's the news.....
Car's parked on the asphalt drive,
You and me man we're going for a ride,
Cruise around, this town, climb aboard, get down.
Take that shit downtown.
Bored of messing around.
'til then, try and figure what it's all about
'til then, keep on getting it wrong.
These are things that we're gonna do
These are the things that we're gonna say
Piercing light from the mountain,
Burning far away.
Way down.
Comin' down from the mountain,
breathin' fire as I go,
I see a man in the distance,
Watch his eyes they strat to glow,
I see a fire in the valley,
Its burning light wants you to know,
There lives a lady in its shadow,
She wants the world not to know who we are
Light burns out from the mountain,
it splits the world in two,
blood and burning ichor cascade all over you,
she has fulfilled her promise,
back to the mountain we go,
beneath the lake forever,
inside the mountains core.
Way Down
(Bringing you way down)
Way Down
(Dragging you under)
Way Down
Way Down.

Man I swore that second time 'round I'd have some new written for today.
Except every time I think of something it just disappears like a vapour on the wind.
I get so bored every time I see the same old face in the same old places.
Places stay the same, it's just the people that change.
That's the way it's always been.
That's right.
I remember thinking this stream of consciousness idea was a good thing at the time.
I remember riffing of a fire extinguisher and a piece of paper I saw out of the corner of my eye.
I get so bored every time I see the same old face in the same old places.
(Same old shit)
Places stay the same, it's just the people that change.
That's the way it's always been.
That's right.
Say Hey Hey!
Say Hey Hey!
Say Hey Hey!
Watashi wa kurage gozen (私はクラゲ午前)

(それは超おいしいですが、味噌汁でそれを試してみてください)
LET'S GO SLOW
(ぼく が....)
LET'S GO SLOW
(きみ が....)
LET'S GO SLOW
(あなた わ。。。？)
LET'S GO SLOW
If I walk any faster, I'll go back in time.....

“Are you an assassin?”
“I’m a soldier”
“You’re neither”
“You’re an errand boy, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill.”
You hear that sound?
That sound is God laughing as you make plans, boy.
This whole world is dead now.
And we’re nothing but ghosts.
Hey, what a great time for you son.
Hey, what a great time for your regrets.
If I could I’d have saved them.
The world is dead now in that respect.
It was so clean.
So clean that I envied them.
Clean, clean as a rifle.
Man, the whole world is dead now.
And we are the ghosts.
The only way out is when you’re gone.
I’m just going home.
I’m just going home to you.
Bury your hands in the filth and the maggots.
“How far are you from the river?”
“The Ohio river, sir? About 200 miles”
“I went down that river once when I was a kid.
There was a place on the river, i can’t remember,
must have been a gardenia plantation or a flower plantation at one time,
all wild and overgrown now,
but for about five miles
you’d think that heaven had fallen upon the earth.
In the form of gardenias.”
Hey, what a great time for you son.
Hey, what a great time for your regrets.
If I could I’d have saved them.
The world is dead now in that respect.
Errand boy.
Errand boy.
Errand boy.
Errand boy.
