Lyrics

Survival of the Hippopotamus
PhaZe 2 original

(Verse 1)
And when we see ourselves beneath the rein
Will we still see ourselves even without time?
Can we befriend the man who keeps what's been told?
Or will we shake the hand, and watch it unfold?

(Pre Chorus)
We need air
Don't let me go
We will tear
Right from the bone

'Cause we don't care of blood that's shed
Keep hold of diamonds, abandon the lead
Don't hold back what's been read feed breath to the fire that bleeds for dead
Tread through this molten bed of limbs and shrine designed in red designed in red

(Chorus)
Where do we go when all the floorboards reach our knees?
And how can we die and lead a live that is unseen?
How will we know that everything we had no longer exists?
Why do we try, when persevered achievements are left to be missed?

(Verse 2)
These shattered places, these broken spaces, prevent the slightest hope
It feels like ages, since adding pages, to life as we've known
So come inside there's no reason to hide, believe you're not alone
Fear the darkness, together we will harness a day that we have grown

(Pre Chorus)
We need air
Don't let me go
We will tear
Right from the bone

'Cause we don't care of blood that's shed
Keep hold of diamonds, abandon the lead
Don't hold back what's been read feed breath to the fire that bleeds for dead
Tread through this molten bed of limbs and shrine designed in red designed in red

(Chorus)
Where do we go when all the floorboards reach our knees?
And how can we die and lead a live that is unseen?
How will we know that everything we had no longer exists?
Why do we try, when persevered achievements are left to be missed?

(Interlude)
This gated try, our hopeless pry
Through blockades, before their eyes
No trace of open space, no infraction of grace
Abide with broken shields, there's just no time to feel

(Chorus)
Where do we go when all the floorboards reach our knees?
And how can we die and lead a live that is unseen?
How will we know that everything we had no longer exists?
Why do we try, when persevered achievements are left to be missed?
