Lyrics

[00:15.763] The crawlers cover the floor
[00:18.964] In the red ochre corridor
[00:22.545] For my second sight of people
[00:25.637] They've more lifeblood than before
[00:29.465] They're moving in time
[00:33.223] Through a heavy wooden door
[00:36.746] Where the needles eye is winking
[00:40.159] Closing in on the poor
[00:42.217] The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
[00:49.847] We've got to get in to get out
[00:58.524] We've got to get in to get out
[01:05.557] We've got to get in to get out
[01:11.934]
[01:13.419] There's only one direction
[01:16.730] In the faces that I see
[01:20.008] It's upward to the ceiling
[01:23.836] Where the chambers said to be
[01:27.533] Like the forest fight for sunlight
[01:31.422] That takes root in every tree
[01:34.488] They are pulled up by the magnet
[01:38.807] Believing they're free
[01:41.100] The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
[01:48.636] We've got to get in to get out
[01:57.783] We've got to get in to get out
[02:04.983] We've got to get in to get out
[02:11.214]
[02:11.945] Mild mannered supermen
[02:14.633] Are held in kryptonite
[02:17.944] And the wise and foolish virgins giggle
[02:21.991] With their bodies glowing bright
[02:25.854] Through a door a harvest feast
[02:29.630] Is lit by candlelight
[02:33.022] It's the bottom of a staircase
[02:36.724] That spirals out of sight
[02:40.266] The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
[02:49.481] We've got to get in to get out
[02:57.165] We've got to get in to get out
[03:04.809] We've got to get in to get out
[03:11.085]
[03:11.831] The porcelain mannequin
[03:14.059] With shattered skin fears attack
[03:17.677] The eager pack lift up their pitchers
[03:21.823] They carry all they lack
[03:25.477] The liquid has congealed
[03:28.966] Which has seeped out through the crack
[03:32.241] And the tickler takes his stickleback
[03:39.848] The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
[03:48.433] We've got to get in to get out
[03:56.838] We've got to get in to get out
[04:04.196] We've got to get in to get out
