Owen Pallett
The Sound Of The Engines
[Verse 1]
Oh, I dream of starships, starships and the void
The faces of the prophets history destroyed
But I will live forever; of this I am sure
Bury my lovers, I am the cure
[Pre-Chorus 1]
My body is wider and stronger than collapsing buildings
And I will see the graves, I will see the graves of your children
[Chorus 1]
Woke up in an ambulance, beaten and bleeding
The sound of the engines, oh, I am a wound un-healing
[Verse 2]
When I was a user, my arms were all in splinters
But out here in the snowy field, I am the winter
My coat, it flies open, and I let you in
The Great White Noise will be your undoing
[Pre-Chorus 2]
A left to the heavens and a right, a right to the jaw
A chorus of the angels, and I fall
[Chorus 2]
Woke up in an ambulance, blue-fingered and freezing
The sound of the engines, oh, I am a wound un-healing
