colour revolt - mattresses underwater (makeshift ep version) lyrics

Loading...

there are places
some of us can’t face yet
and even though we see it
we just swear god’s sleeping
we say

“ash to ash, dust to dust
we’re all gonna die so we have to
trust in something”
though it might be nothing
it’s gotta be something

now we mean it
in our homes where we’re sleeping
we call it mattresses underwater
but the gutters are seeping
we say

“ask and ask and we’ll return
the same old favors till its our own turn”
we got ash in our pockets and dust in the urn
another forty years for you
and yours to learn

love was made like a ship at bay
never to see waves
we’ll probably just crash anyway

when we see it but we don’t believe it
we’ve got our faces made for smiling, but we are weeping
we got ash in our pockets and dirt in the urn
another forty years for you and yours to learn
you say, “all you ever talk about is dying and it’s getting so old”

and we say
that “love was made
like a book or a page
just ripped but we never read anyway”
and you say
“love was made like a ship at bay never to see waves”
we’ll probably just crash anyway

now i see it

she’s got her hands in her pockets and she’s walking around
she’s got a face made for smiling but she’s making a frown
she says, “all you ever talk about is letting us down
well if you ever see us dying, just put me in the ground”
