Cover art for Also Frightened lyrics by Animal Collective

Wow all of these lyrics are so wrong i had to make an account to fix this injustice

Venture my way into the dark where we can sweat One takes one by the hand Let them crawl into the logs that dam Brown jeans the hue of their path

Excited and screamin' their voices grow wild And rise with the birds mating up in the pines Down to puddles that breathe, covered by leaves With mud they'll make prints on their backs

Will it be just like they're dreaming? Will it be just like I'm dreaming? Will it be just like they're dreaming? Will it be just like I'm dreaming?

If they're awake till the dawn, well we won't Fret that they don't have our eye The ghosts came crowding around and then I woke, you slept there on your side From our window, two lanterns draw signs on the night And light our two shadows, I watch with delight Will I want them to be who they will be Or to be more like their dad?

Will it be just like they're dreaming? Will it be just like I'm dreaming? Will it be just like they're dreaming? Will it be just like I'm dreaming?

When influence is threatened Maybe I should let them Maybe we should let them And I have a question:

Are you also frightened?

No one should call you a dreamer

Not now!

Props to this guy! He's the only one who got it right.

Perfect, except I can't shake the the feeling that at the end there's 2 voices going back and forth "DAD!" "NOT NOW!"

that's just what i hear, i guess. I kinda hope that's how it goes... it would keep good with the parenthood theme of the song.
