What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
We were called to the forest
2
And we went down
3
A wind wind blew warm and eloquent
4
We were searching for the secrets of the universe
5
We rounded up demons and forced them
6
To tell us what it all meant
7
We tied them to trees
8
And broke them down, one by one
9
On a scrap of paper they wrote these words
10
(And as we read them, the sun broke
11
Through the trees)
12
Dread the passage of jesus, for he will not return
13
Then we headed back to our world
14
And left the forest behind
15
Our hearts singing with all the knowledge of love
16
But somewhere, somehow, we lost the message
17
Along the way
18
And when we got home, we bought ourselves a house
19
And we bought a car that we did not use
20
And we bought a cage,and two singing birds
21
And at night we'd sit and listen to the canary song
22
For we'd both run right out of words
23
Now the stars they are all angled wrong
24
And the sun and the moon refuse to burn
25
But I remember a message
26
In a demon's hand
27
Dread the passage of jesus, for he does not return
28
He does not return
29
He does not return
