Here Til It Says I'm Not - Dirty Projectors

[Verse 1]
No one stands pointguard to the void
Without getting destroyed
You're a boy bashed into the grid
You're immune to rebellion from within
Aren't you here til it says you're not?

[Verse 2]
We both take diamonds from the mine
We both work on the archive
You invest power in your side
Watch and don't see shivers in the darkness of it's black light
Here til we say it's not

[Chorus]
Hey! Put your hands above your head where I can see
Hey! I know that you breathe the same air that I breathe
Hey! We know that the things we do is how we speak
The things we do is how we speak
The things we do is how we speak

[Verse 3]
The handcuffs chafe against the wrists
The face is listless
Entertained only by a feel
Where we play, faces well concealed
Aren't we here til it says we're not?

[Chorus]
Hey! Put your hands above your head where I can see
Hey! I know that you breathe the same air that I breathe
Hey! We know that the things we do is how we speak
The things we do is how we speak
The things we do is how we speak
