Brian Eno Lyrics - Congratulations - Mgmt

So tired, soul searching 

I followed the sounds to a cathedral 

Imagine my surprise to find that 

They were produce by Brian Eno 

Past the gates, quite stark 

The roses trimmed and the windows dark 

I see the walls through a limestone crack 

Not red, not blue, not yellow but black 

And all the spaces left for you 

If the sky was synthesized you'd probably know 

He taught me many things 

The wisdom of oblique stratagems 

The prophet of a sapphire soul 

Presented through creative freedoms 

And everything I say is true 

'Cause if I was telling lies it'd probably show

I can tell that he's kind of smiling 

But what does he know? 

We're always one step behind him 

He's Brian Eno, Brian Eno 

When I was stuck he'd make me memorize elaborate curses 

Tinctures and formulas to ditch the chori and flip the verses 

My whole foundation came unglued 

When I tried to humanize by ambient light 

Dipping swords in metaphors, yeah 

But what does he know? 

We're always one step behind him 

He's Brian Eno, Brian Eno 

He promised pretty worlds 

And all the silence I could dream of

Well, all alone by the oldest stone 

Where the shade trees grow 

The creature by the water 

Feature with a ghostly glow 

Yeah, he's making sure that time's preserved well 

We reap what we sow 

We're always one step behind him 

He's Brian Eno 

Yeah, I can tell that [Incomprehensible], yeah 

But what does he know? 

I'm always one step behind him 

He's Brian Eno 

Yeah, dipping swords in metaphors, yeah 

But what does he know? 

[Incomprehensible] blind to foolish 'cause I don't know 

Brian Eno 

I can tell that he's kind of smiling 

But what does he know? 

I will always be a step behind him 

He's Brian Eno 

Yeah, he's making sure that time's preserved well 

We reap what we sow 

I'm always one step behind him 

'Cause I don't know Brian Eno
