Everything Everything - Distant Past lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Drag my tongue across the sand

So happy just to crawl across the land

Soon I’ll be the best around

I’m goin' to keep my plunder underground

Hard flesh, cold against the rain

Dust billowin' around my brazen brain

Saw off all my stinkin' limbs

Blood drippin' down my sunken monkey chin

(Pre Chorus)

Baby can u leave it in the (distant past)?

Baby can u leave it in the (distant past)?

Girl, I'm from the very very (distant past)

Girl, I'm from the very very (distant past)

Baby can u leave me in the (distant past)?

Baby can u leave me in the (distant past)?

Girl I want to take u to the (distant past)

Girl I want to take u to the (distant past)

(Chorus x2)

Take me to the distant past

I want to go back

Save me from the distant past

I want this so bad

Distant past

(Verse 2)

Two thumbs, I cross the Rubicon

Slack-jawed but u’ll neva be passin' it on

Plug hole, down the drain u go

Ur body neva made it past the snow

Canine, fangs up out my throat

You’re bleedin' ova Eden like a goat

Tall blade, a Triffid in every field

I’m bloomin' like a fumin' human shield

(Pre Chorus)

(Chorus x2)

(Bridge)

Past! The past! I’m back!

I’m bad! The past!

CROM!

The past!

(Chorus x2)
