Текст песни Snakes in the Walls - Topiary Creatures

There's a beige tree-painted wall behind my headboard
It starts shaking out of nowhere
My brother, you look concerned, and so sure
Saying, "There're snakes behind your head, and through the rafters
Writhing when they're upset."
And I can't prove you wrong
But what an odd stance to take to heart

Why the fuck would you start there?
No, it's not God
There're no creatures in the walls
Our twin theologian bed-frames
Could've solved anything
But since when can I not talk to you?
Talk to you
Since when can I not talk to you?
Talk to you

It's just the other side of the wall
It's just dad on the bench grinder
It's just the washing machine
I was just drumming with my feet again

You've got every little answer
How they all got in there
How they're living off cellulose
Why the book of Joshua doesn't apply
But you can't work backwards
There are simpler answers

Why the fuck would you start there?
No, it's not God
There're no creatures in the walls
Our twin theologian bed-frames
Could've solved anything
But since when can I not talk to you?
Talk to you
Since when can I not talk to you?
Talk to you
Talk to you
Talk to you
Since when can I not talk to you?
Talk to you
