Letra
Worm was wood
Snail was an ocelot
The deer in the headlights
Was a marigold in bloom
Lily was light
And a teardrop was a grain of sand
You were counting sweaters
While sheep were howling at the moon
Earth was flat
And sugar fly was sewer-rat
The leaves that were blowing
Were still growing when we left
Bird was bug
And billy was a beetle too
I was in love with you
How quickly we forget
We forget the clothes we wear
Were only fur and feathers
We held the world together without proof
We forget the lies we tell were yet to be invented
And we lived with only instinct and the truth
Snake was stick
And branches were open arms
The tide came in
And it covered up our bed
Worm was wood
This used to be a neighbourhood
You made a promise
How quickly we forget
How quickly we forget
Tradução da letra
Verme era madeira
Caracol era um Ocelote
O veado nos faróis
Era uma marigold em flor
A Lily era leve
E uma lágrima era um grão de areia
Estavas a contar Camisolas.
Enquanto as ovelhas uivavam na lua
A terra era plana
E o sugar fly era um rato de esgoto.
As folhas que sopravam
Ainda estavam a crescer quando saímos.
O pássaro era um insecto.
E o billy também era um escaravelho.
Eu estava apaixonado por ti.
Quão depressa nos esquecemos
Esquecemo-nos das roupas que vestimos
Eram apenas peles e penas
Mantivemos o mundo unido sem provas
Esquecemo-nos das mentiras que contamos ainda não tinham sido inventadas.
E vivíamos apenas com instinto e com a verdade
Snake was stick
E os ramos estavam abertos
A maré subiu
E cobriu a nossa cama
Verme era madeira
Isto costumava ser um bairro
Fizeste uma promessa.
Quão depressa nos esquecemos
Quão depressa nos esquecemos
