dragonfly - flying fox and the hunter gatherers lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
each encounter leaves a bigger mark
on my trembling heart
as a dying thing i live only to die again

every kind of travesty that could befall an earthly beast
i endure
i live, i die
i live again

[interlude]

[verse 2]
once i saw you shiver as a filament within globe
i will wait, you will grow
i can be so patient

even then you are ferocious
even then the hoard is scattered by
your [?] mandibles
and thousands of tiny eyes

[interlude]

[verse 3]
then i saw you swimming through a sea of rotting body parts
it’s good to see you’re practicing
you got to get used to it

got to get used to death
got to get used to k!lling
got to get used to ripping limb from torso
so to suck the ruby juices

[chorus]
dragonfly, dragonfly
are you happy underwater, dragonfly?
are you happy on the bottom?
oh the arrow knot should be in the air
but nobody will love you when they see what you can do
feel the shadow’s sun
join the sky’s great tradition
call it what you will

[verse 4]
now that you have left the water
keep on climbing, keep on climbing!
i remember it was frightening
i remember it was dry

look out for the mammals!
look out for the birds! (look out! look out!)
crushing jaws of vertebrates
they will get you where they can

[chorus]
dragonfly, dragonfly
are you happy underwater, dragonfly?
don’t be happy on the bottom
oh the arrow knot should be in the air
but nobody will love you when they see what you can do
feel the shadow’s sun
join the sky’s great tradition
call it what you will

[interlude]

[bridge 1]
son, this happens only one time
be careful, do it right

[bridge 2]
breathe in as far as you can go
pull your shoulders into your chest
split the skin down your back pump
blood into that little satchel
you’ve been carrying around underwater
carrying around on the bottom
now you understand, now you’ll understand
this is what you were born for
this is why you were born!

as far as you can go!
pull your shoulders into your chest
split the skin down your back
pump blood into that little satchel
you’ve been carrying around underwater
carrying around on the bottom

now you understand

[outro]
fly then genocide
yes, the swift destruction of some hated people
but those living things, they die
only to live again

our bodies fail
but our family endures
to live, then die
then live again

and now that you are dead
it’s time for you to live again
it’s time for you to live
