 Verse 1: (0:08)

                
half of all our lives are spent
              
encouraged by embarrassment
                       
we hold our heads and stay asleep 
               
and cannot hear
                 (*)  
in case nobody called


 Chorus 1: (0:29)

 
follow the prim ones 
                 
and sit on your hands
                           
watch your step don’t hardly move
  
speak in hushed tones 
                          
till they bring on the ending
                      
they bring on the ending
                         
as we file to get outside
                          
with all the same coats on


 Verse 2: (0:56)

              
here it is december’s end
          
all our evaluations are in
     
the lowland’s goal 
    
is less than low 
               
it’s good (good)
                  (*)  
so easy to have met them

 Verse 3: (1:49)

                  
august light the weightless fall
                       
the hold of trucks could carry us all
     
the hot exhaust
      
the thoughtless sleep
              
we’d run (run)
                    (*)  
and fall into the river


 Chorus 2: (2:09)

 
we’d meet up at night 
                    
pretty late by the falls
                       
talk too fast without regret
       
with headlights and stars
                              
it was brighter than the daylight
                  
bodies all backlight
                               
unconscious though we’re moving
                    
stereo was screaming

 Chorus 3: (2:56)

 
we’ll settle for stares
                       
now un-glide with our hands
                            
the basement is where we will live
      
and stick to the crowds
                   
without ever speaking
                   
we want it that easy
                            
and don’t get caught dancing
                       
even if you’re drinking
                 ()
don’t get caught dancing
