Top of the Bottom Lyrics by Ok Goodnight
Let’s go through it all, every little thing
Make a list of all the good, but mostly all the bad we did
Maybe then we can learn to live with it
Show me how it all went
Won’t you just play it out for me?
Kind of like how you’d see it on the TV screen
A dramatization of all we’d seen
And when our hands begin to burn
(A lovely flame)
You know we’ll be shaking the hand of god
(When the lights begin to sing)
The sky is a sinking ship, oh his holiness
(Don’t you stop praying, now)
This time I know for sure, we’ve reached the top of the bottom again
(Reached the top, reached the top of the)
Reached the top of the bottom
“In the early morning light
I looked down at my limbs only to see red
Red all around me
We were all frozen in prayer
The stillness was like that of a thousand corpses
I tried to scream, tried to wake up
But I heard nothing
Not a sound nor a shiver
Only silence”
And when our hands begin to burn
(A lovely flame)
You know we’ll be shaking the hand of God
(When the lights begin to sing)
The sky is a sinking ship, oh his holiness
(Don’t you stop praying, now)
This time I know for sure, we’ve reached the top of the bottom again
(Reached the top, reached the top of the)
Reached the top of the bottom
