Jimmy, He Whispers

God knows you're on my mind

I can't tell him otherwise

God knows it's only time

Before I break the chain in my eyes

Fear keeps you hiding at night

And the creatures play ball outside

Chances are slim we are right

But I'd never think it any otherwise

So we'll find the answers in time

And the bodies pile up sky high

And I'll sail this ship towards the sky

But I'll end all alone on the other side

And if you could pull that rope just a little higher

We could dangle alone like a firefly

So Jimmy I've heard the voice of God

And he whispered fear is logical

And he said it's magic, wonderful

And he swears to him it's wonderful

And the lake you speak of, magical

So I skip stones on it, practical

And I make sure we're both wonderful

You're a brother and that's alright

You're a brother and that's alright

You're a brother and that's alright

We're brother it makes it right

Cuz his blood is so red in spite

Of the way that our sharp teeth bite

Oh the way that our sharp teeth bite

In each other during the night

With the creatures that play outside

We're the creatures that play outside

Cuz Jimmy I've heard the voice of God

And he whispered fear is logical

And the words that we heard aren't repeatable

And the thought that could kill comprehendable

And we're brothers and that's alright (3x)

Yeah, we're brothers until we die
