Anthrax (power Ballad Version) Lyrics - Singles - Kimya Dawson

there's anthrax in the envelope i opened in my dream 

the sky is red and little kids are running, screaming in the street 

i tried to run and save them but i had molasses feet 

i keep having nightmares and i'm scared to go to sleep 

if you fall in i'll jump down 

and touch your face while we're both sinking 

(stinking thinking) we won't drown 

you are my friend 

and what we're doing's too important 

for our lives to end quite yet 

in montreal i got so mad, someone broke into the van 

stole my guitar and aaron's bag 

then we turned on cnn, watched the towers fall again 

and realized that our lives aren't so bad 

this is just a test take it with love and you will pass 

you will be rewarded if you do your very best 

nothing ever goes as planned so don't take anything for granted 

if you do the world will kick your ass 

the air is filled with computers and carpets 

skin and bones and telephones and file cabinets 

coke machines, firemen, landing gear, and cement 

they say that it's okay but i say don't breathe in 

the air is filled with computers and carpets 

skin and bones and telephones and file cabinets 

coke machines, firemen, landing gear, and cement 

they say that it's okay but i say don't breathe that shit in 

an angel named gabriel is watching over you 

he was a friend mistreated now he's dead so say you're sorry to him 

when you say your prayers tonight if you make amends 

the gates to heaven here on earth will open up again 

if you fall in i'll jump down 

and touch your face while we're both sinking 

(stinking thinking) we won't drown 

you are my friend 

and what we're doing's too important 

for our lives to end quite yet
