How to Embrace a Swamp Creature

Lyrics for How to Embrace a Swamp Creature

Got out of bed, could not remember my own name Condemned to walk the soil amongst all creatures wild and tame Go where I go, do what I must Crawl, starving, on my belly, licking up the dry dust I see the light in your window Ride the elevator to the sixth floor Stand with my arms at my sides As you open up the door But I'm out of my element I can't breathe I'm out of my element I can't breathe Alone with your bathroom mirror, try to get my head straight Breathe on the glass and wait for it to clear, clean slate Meet up with you in the kitchen where the air is hot and dry Open up all the faucets, be fruitful and multiply I stand where The flashing swords gleam And I try to shake my head Clear of the dream But I'm out of my element I can't breathe I'm out of my element I can't breathe I start to sweat, I can't cool down I'm scared of all the strangers in this town I try to tell you just why I've come It's like I've got molasses on my tongue I made it through town somehow But who's gonna save me now? I'm out of my element I can't breathe I'm out of my element I can't breathe
