Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
Replace the wires
On your face lifted sky
We are safe here
We are safe here
Paste the fine point
Your eyes, eyes will stare
I too will stare
the money sings quietly
Replace the wires
On your face lifted sky
We are safe here
We are safe here
Paste the fine point
Your eyes, eyes will stare
I too will stare
And the money
Sings
Quietly
By mid flight
You're terrified
And the money
Sings
Quietly
Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
Fire the forces
Fire the torches, high
We are safe here
We are safe here
No slack
In the small
Of your back
Your eyes glazed
In all your days
Replace the wires
On your face lifted sky
We are safe here
We are safe here
Paste the fine point
Your eyes will stare
I too will stare
And the money
Sings
Quietly
By mid flight
You're terrified
And the money
Sings
Quietly
Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
Oh two
I know I know I know
Look to the flat end
You can see your shadow
Oh two
I know the pattern
Oh two
I know
We'll be here again
