Mantis Lyrics
Just got back today and I’m searching round the place
Looking for you-know-who but there’s no sign yet
Singing, auto-pilot days,
Shining, ultra-violet rays,
On this dusty skeleton
I feel akin on a cosmic level
I can see right through ya
Yeah I can read your bones
Just like a telephone book,
Maybe I should,
Give it up, begin again.
I am exercising how good it feels to be alive and
No surprises up my sleeve, everything is temporary…
Ooh, praying mantis on my door,
looking for meaning,
or just any sign at all
Ooh, organizing all my thoughts,
making them rhyme,
choosing wisely where I spend my time
Gimme midnight love again,
feeling somewhat alien
I’m floating aimless
but got my feet concreted
beneath this creature of habit,
Teach me the magic of
an extra ordinary day,
anodyne the time away
And there’s no such thing
as a perfect melody
but I keep searching
every morning in the trees…
Ooh, praying mantis on my door,
looking for meaning
or just any sign at all
Ooh, organizing all my thoughts,
making them rhyme,
choosing wisely where I spend my time
I got my head sorted sort of,
I keep going, just because
yeah just because
I got my head sorted sort of,
I keep going, just because
yeah just because
