lyrics

lyrics by Ethan Nickerson
music by The Mines

I need to retrace my steps before the light fades,
If only to find my way back to the start
The heart of the deep, the jungle won’t sleep for pity’s sake
The night starts to creep, There’s more than my sanity at stake

Then I fall into a garden in the moon,
And the jungle starts to fade
Here the air hums with a soft, atomic tune,
I can feel it as it’s played

Fortify your borders,
Line the streets for war
Children run for safer quarters,
Barricade the door

Chorus

I’ve seen this place before within my mind,
But still I never knew its name
I can’t escape the war within mankind,
But I can fight it all the same
