Lyrics Satin In A Coffin - Modest Mouse

You were laying on the carpet like you're satin in a coffin
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Yeah, right now, but not that often

Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
God, I sure hope you are dead

Well, you disappeared so often like you dissolved into coffee
Are you here right now, or are there probably fossils under your meat?

Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
God, I sure hope you are dead

Now the blow's been softened since the air we breathe is our coffin
Well, now the blow's been softened since the ocean is our coffin
Often times you know our laughter is your coffin ever after
And you know the blow's been softened since the world is our coffin
Well, now the blow's been softened since we are our own damn coffins
Well, everybody's talkin' about their short lists and everybody's talkin' about death

You were laying on the carpet like you're satin in a coffin
You said, "Do you believe what you're sayin'?"
Yeah, right now, but not that often

Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
Are you dead or are you sleepin'?
God, I sure hope you are dead
