The Shins - Dead Alive lyrics

[Intro] (Figments of imagination) [Verse 1] On a walk in a fragile state Weird angle coming over the wire Back home we got girls in braids And they're on roller skates And they roll any way they like From my town I can always look down Down from my nose to the fish in the barrels But in the wiles of human life There are pity nights and ray gentle lights [Chorus] So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive [Verse 2] Monuments were awfully dense I flew by in a daze on the freeway You can whine of our different times But me, I'm fine with [?] this far away [?] our body to function Rain gonna fall on the hills where we hide Wash the blood and the guts to the ocean Leave the pike making everything alright [Chorus] So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive [Chorus] So tonight Dance and cry The dead alive [Outro] Figments Figments of imagination Figments of imagination (figments of imagination) Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination Figments of imagination (Figments of imagination)
