Lyrics The Ground Walks, with Time in a Box - Modest Mouse
Open
up
a
window
All
the
air,
all
the
air
is
falling
out
Eyes
vacuum
up
light
Sound
gets
trapped
by
the
mouth
What
to
do
with
the
remainder
When
the
dents,
the
dents
get
hammered
out
Then
we′ll
travel
through
time
The
world's
an
inventor
with
its
work
Crawling,
running,
squirming
′round
Trees
drop
colorful
fruits
Directly
into
our
mouths
The
world's
an
inventor
We're
the
dirtiest
thing
it′s
thought
about
And
we
really
don′t
mind
We'll
probably
never
get
there
Bring
your
sightseers,
schoolteachers
down
It′s
a
watercolor
weekend
All
the
trees
are
turning
colors
now
We'll
probably
never
get
there
Bring
your
candy
taster
time
wasters
around
And
we′ll
fuck
with
their
minds
The
world
composes
With
his
shirttails
wrinkled,
hanging
out
Bang
us
together
See
what
sort
of
sounds
we
make
right
now
The
world
plays
music
Playing
skin
on
teeth
inside
of
the
mouth
What
sort
of
sounds?
What
lovely
sounds
come
about?
We
greased
all
the
roads
We're
floating
in
the
light
We′re
gonna
break
these
borders
We're
gonna
move
in
time
We
greased
all
the
roads
We're
floating
in
the
light
We′re
gonna
break
these
borders
We′re
gonna
travel
time
We're
gonna
throw
a
party
All
the
ghosts
of
trees
are
coming
out
Don′t
move
in
any
direction
Wait
until
the
light's
inside
of
the
cloud
You′re
gonna
wanna
see
this
Don't
bring
your
camera
around
Watch
sun
and
sawdust
align
We
greased
all
the
roads
We′re
floating
in
the
light
We're
gonna
break
these
borders
We're
gonna
pulse
in
time
We
greased
all
the
roads
We′re
floating
in
the
light
We′re
gonna
break
these
borders
We're
gonna
travel
time
Hold
up
a
window
All
the
air,
all
the
air
is
falling
out
Eyes
vacuum
up
light
Sound
gets
trapped
by
the
mouth
Our
predecessor
left
this
box
And
something′s
clawing
around
I
think
it
really
wants
out
