lyrics

I feel like the walking dead
been asleep for so long
theres a clicking in the back of my head
lets my know that I'm not too far gone

I hear the whispers in the trees
the rattling of their leaves
broken branches and twisted roots
digging down to their tombs

Make up a story all about me
recreate the sense of myself
build me up out of the ground now
out of nothing, out of something

I want to be surrounded
I don't want to be found
I want to be grounded
Until I can't see anything else
Until I can't see anything else

So we dig down a little deeper
we keep scratching at the surface
Pulling apart the pieces
breath shallow, losing our balance

When once our feet were firmly planted
when once we could see our futures
we could see so clearly where we were headed

Kittiwake

Kittiwakes are coastal breeding birds ranging in the North Pacific, North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. The black-legged kittiwake is often known simply as kittiwake. The name is derived from the birds call, a song 'kittee-wa-ake, kittee-wa-ake'. Colonies can be found throughout the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands to southeast Alaska. In the winter, the range extends further south and out to sea. ... more
