Lyrics

[Verse 1: Isaac Brock] Although we'd often wondered It was no thing of wonder The shit that flew from our minds While wearing stains of fresh fruit And riding on shoes of horse glue On this ridiculous climb With great tunnel vision We'd built ourselves a mission To ride on bullets inside Oh, what a vain description Of what we have been missin' So why would anyone try? [Chorus: Isaac Brock, James Mercer] (Whoa-oh) It was always worth it (Oh-whoa) That's the part I seem to hide (Whoa-oh) And the busy ant empire (Oh-whoa) Put up the closing sign [Verse 2: Isaac Brock] I wasn't always cargo I was once kind of my own I guess I'll pack up my mind Well, it took so much effort Not to make an effort Oh, what a flawless design [Chorus: Isaac Brock, James Mercer] (Whoa-oh) It was always worth it (Oh-whoa) That's the part I seem to hide (Whoa-oh) And the busy ant empire (Oh-whoa) Put up the closing sign [Refrain: Isaac Brock] Even as I left Florida [Chorus: Isaac Brock, James Mercer] (Whoa-oh) It was always worth it (Oh-whoa) That's the part I seem to hide (Whoa-oh) And the busy ant empire (Oh-whoa) Has all deserted hive (Whoa-oh) It was always worth it (Whoa-oh) That's the part I seem to hide [Refrain: Isaac Brock] Even as I had left Florida Far enough, far enough, wasn't far enough Couldn't quite seem to escape myself Far enough, far enough, far from Florida We were all drowsin' in cruise control Far enough, far enough, wasn't far enough [Bridge: Isaac Brock] I stood on my heart's porch thinkin' "Oh, my God, I'll probably have to carry this whole load" I couldn't remember if I tried I couldn't remember if I took my brain out Threw it so directly at the goal I couldn't remember if I— Ah! Ah! Augh! I could have my mind erased And still not know exactly what I don't already know [Refrain: Isaac Brock] Even as I had left Florida
