"The Castle In The Air" lyrics - KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD
[Spoken: Leah Senior]
The river opened her mouth and spat into a vast sea larger and bluer than a cloudless sky. Muscular, prodigious, immortal. But our vessel was invulnerable. It was well built, the boat rocked me into sleep and I floated through a deep dream, smooth sailing through the castle in the air...
One-eyed people living peaceful
With monopods and astomi
Without malice or guile
Without covetousness
[Refrain:]
Ohh, ahh
And there's men whose heads do
Grow beneath their shoulders
Maybe we'll find the world's center
Where equinox casts no shadows
Spread our teaching
Alleviate their damnation
[Refrain:]
Ohh, ahh
Ohh, ahh
[Bridge:]
Without us they will go to hell
We are casting spells
[Instrumental]
Could it be faithful?
It couldn't seem more real
As I opened my eyes
The dream de-colorised
Until it was obscured
And the harsh reality hit me like salty water
