Red Rabbits Lyrics - Wincing The Night Away - The Shins

Hurled to the center of the earth again 

The place where it's hot, love 

You know, it hurts to breathe in 

And the watershed you balance on is begging it 

Well did he ever know 

Will he ever know? 

The trees in the moonshine are a dark lattice 

So you catalog every angle you notice 

In a vacuum you are charged to record this 

So you won't make it easy on me 

I can't go into this no more 

It puts too many thorns on my mind 

And the necessary balloon lies a corpse on the floor 

We've pissed on far too many sprites 

And they're all standing up for their rights

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Born on a desert floor, you've the deepest thirst 

And you came to my sweet shore to indulge it 

With the warm and dreaming eyes of an orphan 

But there was not enough 

There is not enough 

Out of a gunnysack fall red rabbits 

Into the crucible to be rendered an emulsion 

And we can't allow a chance they'd restore themselves 

So we can't make it easy on you 

Undaunted, you bathe in hollow cries 

The boys with swollen sunburnt eyes 

A reward for letting nothing under their skin 

So help me I don't know I might 

Just give the old dark side a try 

Photos 

Don't cast your whirling eyes on the shore 

Till we even the score 

I still owe you for the hole in the floor 

And the ghost in the hall 

Who decides who paddles over the falls? 

Yeah, who makes the call 

Who makes the call? 

I know there's an eventual 

Release from every scale of crime 

But the necessary balloon lies a corpse on the floor 

We've pissed on far too many good intentions held by clever sprites 

And they're all standing up for their rights
