Crypt Sustain lyrics
by How to Dress Well
[Verse 1]
Dan makes nature paintings
They don’t show the landscape
Shaking from within
A crypt we carry with us
[Verse 2]
Glass shards and compulsion
Abyssian children
Atom bombs and cave walls
A crypt we carry with us
[Chorus]
Tell me everything you saw in a dream
But the dream pulls back
Tell me everything you wanted to mean
But the screen goes black
Tell me everything you saw in a dream
But the dream pulls back
Tell me everything that you want it to mean
But the meaning retracts
[Verse 3]
What is called disabled?
Who responds to that name?
An Other we can maim?
A crypt we carry with us
[Verse 4]
A hand can draw a straight line?
Evidence of victims
Shaking from within
A crypt we share within us
[Chorus]
Tell me everything you saw in a dream
But the dream pulls back
Tell me everything you wanted to mean
But the screen goes black
Tell me everything you saw in a dream
But the dream pulls back
Tell me everything that you want it to mean
But the meaning retracts
