Mountain Goats - Beautiful Gas Mask lyrics

rate me

Come hard through the fog blindfolded and bound

Till we stand at the edge of a hole in the ground

We hold hands and we jump and as we fall we sing

Paupers heralding the walls of the castle going to meet the king

Never sleep, remember to breathe deep

Never sleep, remember to breathe

Breathe deep

Crash in from deep space shot birds falling fast

Who will be there to catch us in his jaws

When we arrive alive at last?

I can't hear you in the dark

Wish I knew where you'd gone

Know you're there, off in the shadows somewhere

Try to soldier on

Never sleep, remember to breathe deep

Never sleep, remember to breathe

Breather deep and breathe humbly

Secure your mouthpiece when you can

Toxic shapes adorn the walls

As we rise from our knees

Someone's coming to reward us, you wait and see

Or crush us both like fleas

Never sleep, remember to breathe deep

Never sleep, remember to breathe

Breathe deep
