watch your mouth

whisper shackles keep tongues tied and slow to speak
some people scream aloud
pour rock salt on the heart
dry up the carotid
safely drive along it, flame on
strapped in tightly
safe and sound

see mandibles creak like talkin' in their sleep
some people scream aloud
'n' pull rungs so far apart
welcome the mumblin'
finely ya frolic in flames on tissue inside
makin' no sound
make no sound
don't make a sound
safe and sound

safe and sound
stayin' bound
safe and sound

kids all longin'ly
lips just wantin' anything
we watch your mouth
yeah, the hollow rollin' out

some people scream aloud
pour rock salt on the heart
dry up the carotid
safely drive along it, flame on
strapped in tightly
safe and sound
just say it now

so ya know

on land's a body of hands we pay to chain us up
so step right up
i will float
hold on
(hold on) tightly

white knuckle prayin' for
my pegasus soul machine to say
just so ya know
yeah we'll float
hold on
just sit in wonder
under some kinda sun
waiting on what just happened
what just happened?
what just happened?

gold and guns
stable no
nomads weave no land
but loved ones plenty of
just so ya know
yeah we'll float
hold on
sit in wonder
under some kinda sun
waitin' on what just happened
what just happened?

please just hold on
