Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. May 28, 2015]

Barracuda metal slips through our conversation
Shifting from insomnia to chaste acceleration
Peeling out the pages from a book of random lullabies
Sleeping off the chrysalis, waking like a butterfly

In the net
In you get

When you're standing in the light
You can't see the dark alright
You forget
In the net
In you get

You got your ocelot that's eating up your birds
All the empty cages empty just two-thirds
I found that magic lamp and now I got my wish
But it's just another pond and I'm just a bigger fish

In the net
In you get

When you're standing in the light
You can't see the dark alright
You forget
In the net
In you get

In the net
In you get

When you're standing in the light
You can't see the dark alright
You forget
In the net
In you get

[Left]
When you're standing in the light
Just can't feel the dark outside
You'll regret
In the net
In you get
[Right]
When you feel that it's in your coat
Just one man controls that so [4:22]
Wanna bet
In the net
In you get

[Left]
Here's your fortune and you can't take it
Shifting sands that set them free
Well get set
In the net
In you get
[Right]
Winds that sculpt the earth and near
Shaved them suns that held him here [4:38]
Now get set
In the net
In you get

[Left]
???
Should I go outside, there's a baby on the porch
Well get set
In the net
In you get
[Right]
Now you're in trouble on the ziggurat coast
Adjustin' to love while the river soak
Burn you wet
In the net
In you get

[Left]
Swim and you sail and this is the sea
And I say oww you're drowning me
Now I'm wet
In the net
In you get
[Right]
Swim and you sail and this is the sea
And I say hey you're drowning me
Now I'm wet
In the net
In you get
