Trapped Rabbits Lyrics
The ground has been moving
Since it was first laid
So when legs stop spinning
Still no one can stay
All of the spheres that weigh blankets down
Hurl lovers tears
And make watches melt
Celebrity saints
With holes in their face
Sing sticky songs
That hold young brains in place
So lets build several worlds
For the war’s number game
Like soldiers on beaches
Who’s lives were erased
We’ll clamor and claw
Till we tear down their guns
Some friends reach orbit
Some carry on
We dig and we duck
Till they’re out of bullets
Hope that some friends reach orbit
And some carry on
A body’s got to blend in to transcend
And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
The arms of the typewriter
Pin down our tongue
So the black and the white
Are a city’s brick wall
The love that’s forgot
Is a stick with a fuse
The love that lasts long
Is the tenderest bruise
The hope that we sought
In an insect thats caught
The smile that cracks
Is the water and grass
All through the ages
Our skulls have changed shape
Though they sit there like stones
Still no one can stay
A body’s got to blend in to transcend
And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
The symmetry is sweet
The heart with a monotonous beat
Its just what got her on the run
I know she’s no the only one
Lines form on either side
They’re lining up the sights
The sights we were meant to be hold
Gold stolen from severed wrists
Offered up as gifts
No monuments marking those bones
So they sneak in streets outside
Leave packages at night
That just might tick and explode
Go build bodies with pillows
The city you feel breath
Is somewhere through this window
The ground has been moving
Since it was first laid
So when legs stop spinning
Still no one can stay
All of the spheres that weigh blankets down
Hurl lovers tears
And make watches melt
Celebrity saints
With holes in their face
Sing sticky songs
That hold young brains in place
So lets build several worlds
For the war’s number game
Like soldiers on beaches
Who’s lives were erased
A body’s got to blend in to transcend
And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
Since it was first laid
So when legs stop spinning
Still no one can stay
All of the spheres that weigh blankets down
Hurl lovers tears
And make watches melt
Celebrity saints
With holes in their face
Sing sticky songs
That hold young brains in place
So lets build several worlds
For the war’s number game
Like soldiers on beaches
Who’s lives were erased
We’ll clamor and claw
Till we tear down their guns
Some friends reach orbit
Some carry on
We dig and we duck
Till they’re out of bullets
Hope that some friends reach orbit
And some carry on
And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
Pin down our tongue
So the black and the white
Are a city’s brick wall
The love that’s forgot
Is a stick with a fuse
The love that lasts long
Is the tenderest bruise
The hope that we sought
In an insect thats caught
The smile that cracks
Is the water and grass
All through the ages
Our skulls have changed shape
Though they sit there like stones
Still no one can stay
And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
The heart with a monotonous beat
Its just what got her on the run
I know she’s no the only one

And swallow as we decompose
Should we trap rabbits in the garden
Should we watch the infinite grow
