This Mortal Coil, Tarantula
I'm living, but I'm feeling numb Can see it in my stare I wear a mask so falsely numb And I don't know who I am This void that wells inside of me Is eroding me away I've noticed in other eyes Time's closing in But when the thunder breaks It breaks for you and me Tarantula, tarantula, tarantula, tarantula The future's looking rather grim Strange black tide Decisions lie with stupid men Alone with my life That choking and the hype in me Expecting me to fall But only if I'm threatened Will the tables turn But when the thunder breaks It breaks for you and me Tarantula, tarantula, tarantula, tarantula My world's under a sentence of death I was born underground But when the pressure gets too much for me I bite
Future Islands, Fall From Grace
You were mine when I was young Why does it take so long? When you were here, it was warm Now it's just a bitter storm Now I'm older, turning white Watching days turn into nights Now I'm older and I'm grave Tell me, what's been left to save? Pardon my reflection In the mirror, at your feet Before you go, please tell me "Was it all inside of me?" I'll leave here in the morning I'll leave here in the morning I'll leave here in the morning You were mine when I was young Why does it take so long? Now I'm older and I'm grave Tell me, "what's been left to save?" I held you in the morning In the doorway of the sea "Pardon my reflection It was all inside of me." We slowly fall from grace We slowly fall from grace We slowly fall from grace We slowly fade away We slowly fade away We slowly fade away We slowly fade away We slowly fade away
