Schools Of Eyes Lyrics - Shriek - Wye Oak

Do I sleep? 

The thought is keeping me awake 

I am free 

The knowing keeps me in my place 

An invisible tether 

Is somehow stronger 

But my hand is mine 

Even when you hold it 

When there is time 

Then I will answer 

"See we have forgot" 

A hundred days 

Then I'll remember "see we have forgot" 

You hold a sign that seems forever 

"See we have forgot" 

We are amazed 

And I will answer "see we have forgot" 

So show, the spark 

Can we be wise? 

Do we have the essence? 

I see schools of eyes 

Where there should be faces 

When there is time 

Then I will answer 

"See we have forgot" 

A hundred days 

Then I'll remember "see we have forgot" 

You hold a sign that seems forever 

"see we have forgot" 

You are amazed 

And I will answer "see we have forgot" 

When there is time 

Then I will answer 

"See we have forgot" 

A hundred days 

Then I'll remember "see we have forgot" 

You hold a sign that seems forever 

"see we have forgot" 

You are amazed 

And I will answer "see we have forgot"
