Matilda: Interlude 2 Lyrics - Alt-j

She she she she only ever ver ver ver ver 

Walks to to count count her steps 

Eighteen teen strides and she stops to abide 

By the law that she herself has set 

That eighteen steps is one complete set 

And before the next nine right and nine left 

She looks up up at the blue 

And whispers to all of the above 

Don't let me drown, don't breathe alone 

No kicks no pangs no broken bones 

Never let me sink 

Always feel at home 

No sticks no shanks and no stones 

Never leave it too late 

Always enjoy the taste 

Of the great great great grey world of hearts

As all dogs everywhere bark bark bark bark 

It's worth knowing 

Like all good fruit 

The balance of life is in the ripe and ruined
