the mountain goats - incandescent ruins lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
here inside the final diorama
charting weather patterns for kicks
there’re several fairly weighty problems
i’m pretty sure the simulation won’t fix

never any better at bottom
and the signals i’m set up to receive
choking on the blood of the androids
wiping off the blood on my sleeve
[chorus]
shining on the inside + maybe
shining on the inside + maybe

[verse 2]
somewhere in the monument garden
suggestions of a tunnel to freedom
everywhere the crack of the rifle
never any guns when you need ’em

i have to test my chin on the concrete
it’s the only way to be sure
only the desperate ever make it to the exit
only the brave and the pure

[chorus]
shining on the inside + maybe
shining on the inside + maybe

[verse 3]
shining like a deep sea creature
only temporarily bearing the pressure
sniffing at the walls of the maze
all the ancient rumors were true
you only see the jump cuts and the close+ups
you never get the aerial view
content to make me serve as an example
set up a sign or two on the trail
there’s a lot of things that can happen
all for the want of the nail

[chorus]
shining on the inside + maybe
shining on the inside + maybe
