Lyrics The Thermals

The Thermals

Top of the Earth

Picture yourself

Top of the earth

A foot in cement

A flag in the dirt

Picture the world

Forgetting to turn

We smack the sun

You're the first

To burn

Picture the galaxy

Scattering

Blood, sand and soil

And cheap motor oil

Our union

Our movement

Our greatest high

The shit we die for

Picture the shooting sky

As we fall in the snow

Picture the fire and wind

As we crawl to the ocean

Picture yourself

Top of the earth

A head in the clouds

A hand in rebirth

I picture your face

I picture you naked

I picture it soon

We melt to the moon
