The Chapel (sped up)
[Verse 1]
Where do snails go during the day?
They're probably somewhere playing video games
I'm sad they feel the need to go away
Go away

[Verse 2]
Where's the chapel where the mantis pray?
The leaves grow green then fall away
In reddish shades that crumple under six long legs
Leading me along
The children sing a song
And I'd like to turn around
But I know I’m not that strong

[Chorus]
I'm missing a house
That I've never called home
I'm missing a time that I've never known
I remember a tree, had a whole leaf of my own
But now we're reaching spring
Was it just a dream? I don’t know

[Post-Chorus]
I don't know
What do I know?
What do I know?
What do I know?
[Verse 3]
They warn of snakes in search of prey
The stories scare me so I stay
At the chapel where the mantis pray
And every day
They lead me along
The children hum a hymn
And I'd like to run away
But to leave would be a sin

[Chorus]
I'm missing a house
That I've never called home
I'm missing a time that I've never known
I remember a song, I sung along
But how did it go?
Well, now I'm reaching spring
Probably just a dream
I should let go

[Bridge]
Six legs, tippy tappy toes
Climbing to the podium on Sunday
I was a tadpole at the time
So I don't remember much
About what he had to say
Faces, beady little eyes
Larva always cries
Beetle does the same
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain
Six legs, tippy tappy toes
Climbing to the podium on Sunday
I was a bunny (I was a kitten) at the time
So I don't remember much
About what he had to say
Faces, beady little eyes
Larva always cries
Beetle does the same
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain
[Outro]
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain
Now it remains a dream
A distant memory that itches my brain
