lyrics

Planets tangle up
Stars all fired up
Playgrounds coincide and toy cars collide
Toy cars collide

If you’re coming out to play
Bring your bucket and your spade and shut your mouth
We wade through the fire ‘til it’s out
We wade through the fire

The dogs have been howling at the open door
Sly and thievish
Their left eyes twitching
I’m sorry that ghost isn’t holy anymore
Forget the mawkish and their churches
Family tree stumps and broken branches
The dogs have been howling all night

Planets tangle up
Stars all fired up
Create, protect, destroy and fall asleep in the crater when it’s over

Dream of your holy monster
Destroy all impostors
Dream of your eerie father

White moth in the night
Enticed by the lights
A wild bird in the house
A creature wanting out
Creatures wanting out
Through the window to your room
I can see you
Wanting me to
Sleep in the cloud dunes
To sleep in the cloud dunes

Animals rampaged
Overthrowing things
Sly and thievish
Their left eyes twitching
I’m sorry that ghost isn’t saying anything
Forget the mawkish and their churches
Their family tree stumps, their broken branches
The dogs have been howling all night

Dream of your holy monster
Destroy all impostors
Dream of your eerie father

We’re reckless with the blade
Still I watch you through the eyelid
Behind my wall
