Right Away Great Captain When I Met Death Lyrics
When I Met Death by Right Away, Great Captain!
[Verse 1: Andy Hull]
When I met Death, we bended like a mile high tree
Climbing his shoulders, admiring the scene
The forest set fire as I wept in fear for things
I knew I was hiding between the good in you and me
Neurotic, I ask him what route we've gone
Using words that can't be heard, you silenced mine
And the water was orange, holy neon tangerine
We'll be there when we get there, either way you're here with me
So let it be, let it be, let it be
[Verse 2]
The garden, a blind man, a ti-83
A tidal reunion but you can't remember me
The time is arriving, prepare to meet the King
The Son that has one thousand sons, deciding if one's me
[Bridge]
And then, as if my eyes had been replaced with gasoline
Exploding, sending thousands upon thousands towards the trees
It's harder now than ever to express how much that means
And I realized I'd already been here once and now again
[Verse 3]
I am the wind, I am the trees, I'm the saving sand
You speak about me sometimes but I never understand
The garden, the blind man, I hope you know
And all the seams that you've undone, you'll have to sew
Oh, now go, now go
Now go
And all the seams that you've undone you indeed will repair
For now you must be fully aware
For now you must become fully aware
When I met Death, we bended like a mile high tree
Climbing his shoulders, admiring the scene
The forest set fire as I wept in fear for things
I knew I was hiding between the good in you and me
Neurotic, I ask him what route we've gone
Using words that can't be heard, you silenced mine
And the water was orange, holy neon tangerine
We'll be there when we get there, either way you're here with me
So let it be, let it be, let it be
[Verse 2]
The garden, a blind man, a ti-83
A tidal reunion but you can't remember me
The time is arriving, prepare to meet the King
The Son that has one thousand sons, deciding if one's me
[Bridge]
And then, as if my eyes had been replaced with gasoline
Exploding, sending thousands upon thousands towards the trees
It's harder now than ever to express how much that means
And I realized I'd already been here once and now again
[Verse 3]
I am the wind, I am the trees, I'm the saving sand
You speak about me sometimes but I never understand
The garden, the blind man, I hope you know
And all the seams that you've undone, you'll have to sew
Oh, now go, now go
Now go
And all the seams that you've undone you indeed will repair
For now you must be fully aware
For now you must become fully aware
