The Greater Than Symbol And The Hash Lyrics

Cover art for The Greater Than Symbol And The Hash lyrics by Dananananaykroyd

New letters across chest emblazoned You're rewarded with high fives and embraces Seating banks are ripped from the theatres To build forts and to build defenses In the streets, millions gather Ignite documents and get warm from the Ink of the burning alphabet

One million buildings crumble New characters are found in the rubble Dip a pen in the new ink So as you write you erase The stems and the seraphs decay The notes all fall from the staves and the Dots and lines which mean that you repeat it Keep the music repeating and repeating

Breaths in and out anticipate A clicking sound and the boots on the ground Are removed so the feet dance through The motions of encoding that sound Analogue mechanisms whir As a million pins punch tiny holes In reams of tape and as it breaks A syntax deforms New letters across chest emblazoned You're rewarded with high fives and embraces Seating banks are ripped from the theatres To build forts and to build defenses

The hammer beat The ribbon to a rhythm The greater than symbol and the hash Become the dot and the dash

Just a few correction. 100% correct as it came straight from Calum.
