Forever Growing Centipedes lyrics
by The Faint
[Verse 1]
Every time I move I'm in another dimension
Everything I do changes what I want
I see a choice I make explode in thousands of pieces
Every time I choose I become a shard
[Verse 2]
I could take up science and study cells of the body
Learn to postpone death under the microscope
I'll make my own lab coat and built a house in the forest
You and me eating mushrooms together
We'll stretch out so long, and hope we don't sever
[Chorus]
Forever growing centipedes
Forever growing centipedes you and I
Forever growing centipedes through time
[Verse 3]
I could step outside and walk in any direction
Everything I choose erases ghosts of potential
But it makes some new ghosts that I can fill
I can just choose one as far as I can tell
[Bridge]
If I veer off course I'll learn to kick out the habit
If I spin off track I know that I can change
We could both grow up to be a 150
But for now we are children together
[Verse 4]
Every time I move I'm in another dimension
Everything I do changes what I want
I see a choice I make explode in thousands of pieces
Every time I choose I become a choice
[Chorus]
Forever growing centipedes
Forever growing centipedes you and I
Forever growing centipedes
Forever growing centipedes
[Verse 5]
Let's build a buckminster dome on an island
We'll seal ourselves in a timeless web
If every second we make new futures
We'll see how long we can hide from death
[Outro]
Forever growing centipedes
Forever growing centipedes
Forever growing centipedes you and I
Forever growing centipedes
