Glad Rags - Watership Down Lyrics

Hiding, seeking
Perusing and peeking
Buildings creaking
Left all by itself
Fingers, eyelids
Scattered little islands
Someone's little tribes been left all by themselves
Now running on two feet
Charting the course of adrenaline
Echoing over the calls of the seraphim
Fight or flight
Down to one last life
Now the 8th one's over

Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Everybody who's weak
Everybody won't speak
But they scream
Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Everybody who's weak
Everybody won't speak
But they scream
Descend from the palace

Waves of water
Bridges getting taller
Frozen habits
Rapid, rabid, rabbits

Hanging in tandem
Our thoughts start to leave
So we float from this place
To our own sanctuary

Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Everybody who's weak
Everybody won't speak
But they scream
Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Descend from the palace
Everybody who's weak
Everybody won't speak
But they scream
Descend from the palace

Papa paid a pretty penny
Purple pelts of polyethylene
15 minutes to get ready
To feel naked in your clothes
Light, on your feet
But you're floating when you're on your toes
Caught, in a sleet
Sniffing out the mice without a nose

Culled and cornered
Pushing through the borders
Kicking, screaming
Drops of golden semen
F*cking, freezing
Sniffling and wheezing
Life's depleting
No one but ourselves
