lyrics

Boots squelch in the mud,
caution do not trespass,
we'll eat the roots away.

Meaning attributed by
perception multiplied by time
and the desire to fit in.

These fingers all smell like ash
and do you really think that there's a match
amongst the maze of reaching limbs.

I feel claustrophobic,
at the same time I feel bored,
I see an empty hat-stand and I wonder what it's for.

Take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all away, it'll be okay.

All I find most profound
can't be reduced into sound,
here we are and here it is.

The shapes chipped in to weathered bricks
remind me of kissing lips
and the blood that flows beneath.

So I'll keep squeezing grapefruit skins,
juice dribbling down my chin
until my feet stick to the floor.

Travelling across bridges
distanced by character changes,
time, space, and amber lights.

Take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all away, it'll be okay.

Take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all away, it'll be okay.

Take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all away, it'll be okay.

Take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all back, take it, take it all back, take it all away, it'll be okay.
