Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We feel so much better here below
Down here where the eyes are yellow and gold
We rot inside out, we crack and flake
Nothing is better than deep down below
[Verse 2]
My whole mouth brimming of leaves
Submerged and gasping for air
[Verse 3]
Let the earth swallow me whole
Fertile graves bury me engulf my bones
Eyes full of stone as they close
Intertwine with the sediment
As we sink into the mire
Oh, I sense a confused declaration
[Verse 4]
We beat the horse with a sort of unknown conviction
And nothing ever matters, we sink into the mire
[Verse 5]
So I lay here tangled in vines and a mouth brimming with leaves
There's nothing to eat but she fertilizes me
[Verse 6]
We feel so much better here below
Down here where the eyes are yellow and gold
We rot inside out, we crack and flake
Nothing is better than deep down below
[Verse 7]
Do you know what it's like to be
Inside? Separate from life, a shallow grave for benevolence
Submerged, we grasp for light but none that truly exists
Better than nothing now
You feel the Earth surround you as you fall
Inside, a new life animates itself
Inside, a new life animates itself
[Verse 8]
We feel so much better here below
Down here where the eyes are yellow and gold
We rot inside out, we crack and flake
Nothing is better than deep down below
We feel so much better here below
Down here where the eyes are yellow and gold
We rot inside out, we fast decay
Nothing is better than deep down below
