Andrew Dost - Hoodwink lyrics

"So nevermind,... Someday they will build monuments for us" People like me walk out the door, we'll pull you out Into the streets of far off countries If I'm ready to go, how could I let you dwell In delight? So you see, all things are so bright and spiritual These seeds are growing in extraordinary colors I'm convinced. Even I believe that I have grown something It's cased in light Don't worry about me I'm gone Don't worry about me I'm off in a distant place Where I can be the signifier Not that which is signified The referent, convincing us For you my smile is like "bow, bow, bow, bow" Out here there is no "under the skin" And the form of every other Is hidden under covers So let us sleep in ease of dark We couldn't rest With this sense of duty hanging off of our chests Peeled away We had to get back From where the grip of our own hands could lift us from The failures in the eyes of men To form our scales and weigh our works, good again
