Asleep in The Deep - Mastodon

The moment you walked in the room, my friend
the demons, they all went away
be careful, they're only asleep for a while
pretending there's nothing to say

Throw salt in all the corners here
make sure you watch him leave

Build up the walls around this house
and dig out the rot in the floor
block out the entrance with brick and stone
and mortar that's made from coal

Crawl into this hole I've made
transform these feelings of fear

I'm on fire
say you'll remember her voice
and I can't get you out of my mind

Loose lips have fallen on deaf ears
loose lips have fallen on blind eyes

An ocean of sorrow surrounds this home
I hope that we make it to shore
as time chips away at the fortress walls
it seems that we weathered the storm

The sun begins to show itself
revealing victory

I'm on fire
say you'll remember her voice
and I can't get you out of my mind
