We Were Evergreen - Daughters lyrics

I slept like a village and woke up inside you The years had all vanished and swallowed up in the dark Somebody had finished the book I was writing The ending was wrong, it just went back to the start A carpet of women rippled with silence To cover me with the remainders from the floor The lake wanted swimming, I melted inside it And sank to the limits, I'd been there once before Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We won't make it in time And 49 daughters cut 49 heads off They clog up the bottom and here they're floating still One hoole to another, an intricate circut The more you siee out and the more you have to fill We have to ignore this and fly to the surface It's too high above us, we won't make it in time The barrel is leaking, the waters are seeping The boulders away, it's all uphill for now Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We won't make it in time Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up Daughters fill this up We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We're not gonna make it We won't make it in time
