Genesis - Carpet Crawlers (2008 Remaster)

[00:02.38] There is lambswool under my naked feet
[00:07.55] The wool is soft and warm
[00:10.03] Gives off some kind of heat
[00:13.63] A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed
[00:20.68] Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid
[00:30.85] The fleas cling to the golden fleece
[00:37.15] Hoping they'll find peace
[00:40.37] Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid
[00:46.72] There's no hiding in my memory
[00:50.51] There's no room to void
[00:55.41] The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor
[01:01.54] For my second sight of people, they've more lifeblood than before
[01:08.16] They're moving. They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door
[01:14.12] Where the needle's eye is winking, closing in on the poor
[01:19.52] The carpet crawlers heed their callers
[01:22.74]
[01:27.53] We've got to get in to get out
[01:33.51] We've got to get in to get out
[01:38.29]
[01:46.67] There's only one direction in the faces that I see
[01:53.42] It's upward to the ceiling, where the chambers said to be
[01:59.53] Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree
[02:06.03] They are pulled up by the magnet, believing that they're free
[02:11.48] The carpet crawlers heed their callers
[02:20.66] We've got to get in to get out
[02:26.29] We've got to get in to get out
[02:31.13]
[02:38.15] Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite
[02:43.99] And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright
[02:50.97] Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight
[02:56.98] It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight
[03:04.28] The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
[03:12.50] We've got to get in to get out
[03:19.13] We've got to get in to get out
[03:23.95]
[03:31.27] The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack
[03:36.96] The eager pack lift up their pitchers- the carry all they lack
[03:44.26] The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack
[03:50.11] And the tickler takes his stickleback.
[03:57.04] The carpet crawlers heed their callers
[04:04.12] We've got to get in to get out
[04:12.37] We've got to get in to get out.
