Green Grass of Tunnel Lyrics
Down from my ceiling
Drips gray noise.
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.
Behind these two hills here
There's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel
I shut my eyes.
Inside their cabin I make sounds
In through the tubes I send this noise.
Behind these two hills here
fall asleep.
And when I flood in green grass of tunnel...
It floods back.
Down from my ceiling
drips gray noise.
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.
Behind these two hills here
there's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel
I shut my eyes.
Drips gray noise.
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.
There's a pool.
through a tunnel
I shut my eyes.
In through the tubes I send this noise.
fall asleep.
And when I flood in green grass of tunnel...
It floods back.
drips gray noise.
there's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel
I shut my eyes.

To me this song is about how the beauty of a natural environment can transport you out of yourself to an amazing, surreal place. I had an experience like that while listening to this song once... on a classic eastern Sierra weekend, after a beautiful day of hiking, my girlfriend and I drove the dirt back roads up above Mono Lake, towards Parker Lake, and eventually stopped the car at the edge of a vast sagebrush meadow with the towering mountains above to the west and eerie , desolate Mono Lake and the desert below to the east, and we opened the car doors and breathed in the clean air and listened to this song as the sunset colors in the sky melted seamlessly into dusk. With every chord played on the organ the sky seemed more vast and I felt more a part of it. I will never forget that moment as long as I live.
wow that is truely awesome
wow that is truely awesome
Haha, that music is so trippy, you can trip just from hearing it apparently : D

Love this noise.
i could never explain how this song makes me feel.
these are the correct lyrics.
Down from my ceiling Drips great noise It drips on my head through a hole in the roof
Behind these two hills here There's a pool
And when I'm swimming in Through a tunnel I shut my eyes
Inside the cabin I make sounds In through the tubes I send this noise
Behind these two hills here Fall asleep And when I float in green grass of tunnel It flows back
Down from my ceiling Drips great noise
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof
Behind these two hills here There's a pool And when I'm swimming in Through a tunnel.... I shut my eyes.
I shut my eyes
@sortilegus based on personal communication with the band, it's actually 'Down from my ceiling Drips gray noise', not 'great noise'.

Absolutely incredible. I love this band.
"this song provokes a plethora of emotional responses" NightNeverSleeps
you are dead on. It makes me feel almost to the point of goosebumps.
pretty pretty. the kind of song that gives you a tingling feeling that goes from toe to the head and leaves you feeling happier
This song is the epitome of serene
this is a really, really nice song. the lyrics are a bit kooky and surreal but the song's so relaxing and pretty. i like the cute little tinkly sounds in the background.
if you wanna talk about a beautiful, dreamy, trippy song that will make your mind wander into a dreamland of visual lucidity then this is it. absolutely mindblowing.
