Your Ancestors Were Dinosaurs 04:14
lyrics

I had a night-nightmare last night and it frightened me I can't remember it That's how I prefer it to be Behind the couch I hid in the corner of the living room It was a hidden place where I was invisible Where the bay tree grew Your shout rang out like a gunshot fired in a forest Shut the door unless you're leaving JESUS CHRIST IT'S FUCKING FREEZING All Of Your ancestors were dinosaurs And I was frightened Your ancestors were dinosaurs And I'm afraid to make new friends You died in the WC from a fire that you couldn't see I moved in slow motion My limbs reacted like we were under the Under the ocean I had a night night-mare last night and it frightened me The feeling's coming back But I'd prefer if it were to leave Your shout rang out like a gunshot fired in a forest Shut the door unless you're leaving JESUS CHRIST IT'S FUCKING FREEZING All Of Your ancestors were dinosaurs And I was frightened Your ancestors were dinosaurs And I'm afraid to make new friends I had a nightmare I had a nightmare I had a night-nightmare And I was frightened I was scared I had a night-nightmare

lyrics

This is the kind of moment You would write a song about 'cause It feels like your insides turning out Why's it easier to sleep on Your friend's couch with the TV on Than it is to sleep in your own bed alone You won't die alone It doesn't matter now which Way you point your car 'cause I'll be left behind you And I watch your tail-lights blend Into the street of Rubies and diamonds You won't die alone You will find new love You're not a wave You are part of the ocean And you Won't die Alone You Will find New love
