Dry

Cats Are Aliens

We're close to the surface, I'm too tired to think

Awoken to find you beginning to sink

I know all these strangers, a weakened defence

Who knows what we're doing?

We wasted our chance



The lambs from the slaughter are heading for home

Head above water and dry as a bone

I feel that I oughta just go on my own

And keep above water 'cause dry is alone



This self-mutilation seems such a waste

I have seen evil, it's not without taste

I make excuses, scrape rust from my veins

It's wrong to be normal

It's you who should change



The lambs from the slaughter are heading for home

Head above water and dry as a bone

I feel that I oughta just go on my own

And keep above water 'cause dry is alone



Surrender my karma and live for the day

I'm not sure I wanna come back anyway

You're off in the distance

We're joined at the hip

I'm keeping my balance but losing my grip



The lambs from the slaughter are heading for home

Head above water and dry as a bone

I feel that I oughta just go on my own

And keep above water 'cause dry is alone

They're calling my number if that still applies

Counting the costs and feigning surprise

Battles are lost if you lead from the front

It used to be harder to get what I want.
