Anathallo - Sleeping Torpor lyrics

It did not happen in a day We hummingbirds said, "Father don't You could do the right thing You could turn around." He called our names and 1, 2, 3 We slipped into the snow boots Stood behind the coats hanging lowest In the closet racks I moved and made a sound The hangers jangled Did he hear the metal clattering? And had I given us away? I'd given us away We waited side by side We could hear your soles squeak We could feel the ground shake We tightly closed our eyes You found us, you were right this time How did you know? We were curled in sleeping torpor We dreamed of flying up where the exhausted die You found us, you were right this time How did you know? Pinned behind the pantry with the vacuum Pancaked underneath the bed means dead Nestled between the ladle, with the pots and pans My heart beats and beats And I can hear it like a drum in my head
