Everything Is Borrowed lyrics

Some people live their lives by a little red book
The points for right lying out and guides them good
They never really mimic every word by eye
Cuz' if they did they'd be in a whole world of strife
The book's quite old school, but then it was tough
It contains some quite experimental justice
The thinking people are thinking that without this book

This is my hour, Im never going to bed.
The sky is still black, but begs to be red.
I just put my book down, but it begs to be read
Im not nod, Im not napper, never rest my head.
Some days I feel Im getting smaller and smaller,
but some nights, I seem to grow taller and taller.
And we keep shrinkin and shrinkin but this will not finish.
Youre never nothing, if you didnt disappear.

I want to go to heaven for the weather
But hell for the company
I want to go to heaven for the weather
But hell seems like fun to me

Theres something in the sun this day, I feel it
Or maybe its just my hay fever
The weeds are green, the sky is shining
But itll soon be night which is nicer
But then cracks peel back and hell bends the room
And the devil gestures to you

We haven't even started and it's almost the end
We never talked it over, in fact we never said anything
Two of the same kind of sorts hiding thoughts
As the small talk ebbs away the silence is awkward
You hardly even know me and I'm starting to show that
I hardly even know you but I like what i know
I want to talk about it but i quake in my skin
It'll only push you further into making decisions

I'll never give in till you're laying with me,
you may as well tell me when that day will be,
I'll never give in till you're laying with me,
you may as well tell me when that day will be,

I don't mean to sound soking but you know me and I don't feel,
to spoil what we've got enjoying watching dots,
touring out lines, fully boring good time,
throuh the scent of flowers and the humility of love,

I'm really okay, thanks
there's nothing to witness
I said as I looked back from the edge of a cliff
The old man looking down lent over the ridge struck with a grin
As if a blessing had hit him

I slumped on the jut of the cliff
Just leave me alone, this is none of your business
I will, said the old man, but just one thing
And what he said was so lovely it stunned me

From the point he gazed from the choice was made,
but 'walk the cave or the shore?'
The oily cave seemed to breathe on him through gravestone jaws
His little hand grasped in anguish as he weighed up his coin
Somewhere a blue-eyed girl in the world is just waiting for a boy
Footprints trailed as if trod by slaves up to the grey cave floor

All these walls were never really there,
nor the ceiling or the chair.
I am eking weeks of peace on a beach
I see the breezes weave the trees,
these walls you find - they're yours and mine
confined not by them I
I am in times that lie behind my eyelids,
the sunsets steal the rising silence,

I'll not feel no fear
Cause I'm not really here
I'm nowhere near here

Till the very end
We'll be cast his friends
I've known you better and
You've seen my worst
So let's invent worse

When a good night flounders and it's over
How good it was I tend to know
By adding up or rounding down
The evening's count of jokes
Me and my ilk share a twang that's indeciphered by other gangs
That's the thing I love about my fine brothers in slang

One of the first things about you I did see
Is that you verse your views quietly
When nature verses truths I get violent feelings
But softly time will reply that's wise

A delicate gesture of why you see
The best route through this being right through here
But met with a cute blind snide of fear
Best to go along with their idea

But , you gently take things slowly
You softly bowl them over

Everybody do the dodo
Everybody do the dodo
Everybody do the dodo
Everybody do the dodo
Everybody do the dodo
Everybody do... everybody's gotta do the dodo!

It's not earth that's in trouble
It's the people that live on it, no no
Earth'll be here long after we've all gone the way of the dodo

It's not earth that's in trouble
It's the people that live on it, no no
