Laughing Hieroglyphic Lyrics & Chords By Avey Tare

Down there

Do you know where you are?
(No, I don't)
I was talkin' to Dave, and I told him that the reason I get so mean, I mean, I would like to, to make it stronger, so it's angry

The flies in the dark with their ways of shedding some light, now I've lost all my day
I think they are very lucky with internal parts like illumined sun rays
It's so easy to get lost in the mixture
When forces strike hard, you wear your layers or you'll shiver
I didn't think you were struggling so long
With all of the wild things that we took so young
How it must have wrapped you up and left you hanging upside-down
When I was too busy getting lost in the big sound, the big sound
Now I'd trade in all I'd saved to fly to those nights and ask, "How are you brother?"
If we could have just engaged, I'd have enhanced my weakness in comforting others

But the words are all jumbled and faded
My heart is a nurse, but my tongue's in the blender
Now it's become something creative
I know it's not much, but just let it right into your gut
And hold me, I've been sad for days
The light does change its gifts, every hour's devoured
But the same things haunt me, what's haunting you?

Lately I've been seeing beings
They look like they float at the back of my headroom
I don't find it strange, but I'm talking to you

Lion in your dreams
The lion is good for your dreams, accept the lion
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too

And when I get fucked up
I'll do the best to make myself not fucked up again, my heart and my lungs too
Why can't I do the same for everyone I love too?

How about it'll be you and me and the leader of the ghosts?

How about it'll be you and me and the leader of the ghosts?

Lately I've been seeing beings
They look like they float at the back of my headroom
I don't find it strange, but I'm talking to you

Lion in your dreams
The lion is good for your dreams, accept the lion
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too

Left hours ago
(I know)
Were you

You'd better keep movin', there's a fair amount of quicksand around here
Best keep your eyes open, too, or one of these just might
