Hippocampus - Bury Your Own Lyrics




I must've been asleep because I don't recall this world
I don't recognize this place that sprouted around me
The places that were dear have been run down
Took all the landscapes and built quaint little towns
Seven banks, real estate, stock brokers
Endless stretches of cracked streets to lead you to more
While the jobs decrease the population soars
The cultures all the same and the complexion is plain
They say it's like heaven but I don't remember dying
And being stuck here, I kinda feel like trying
The sun shines everyday and I endlessly think
Of how I'll laugh as I watch this place sink
I must've been asleep because I don't recall this world
I can't understand why we kill for what's not ours
Work hard, eat well, and don't talk back
Sleep tight and we'll make up for the courage you've lacked
The horizon plagued by the advertisements and streetlights
When all I want is to see the sunrise one more time
Plow the graveyards and pity the dead
For they missed out on what we all can enjoy
We bury our dead in boxes of extravagance
While breathing men live on the streets and beg for money
Sweep em' off the streets, put them in there place
Out of sight, out of mind, forgotten in time, nameless face
I want to lay back down, fall back to sleep
Where everything is right, where I can walk without fear
Smiles to cover over the agony and the muffled screams
Cursed earth, why must we only exist in dreams?
