Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

This
Is the place
Sit down
You're safe now
You've been stuck
In a lift
We've been trying
To reach you, Thom
This
Is the place
It won't hurt
Ever again
(Yeah...)
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up
(Yeah...)
Empty all your pockets
Because it's time...
To come home
This
Is the place
Remember me?
I'm the face
You always see
You've been stuck
In a lift
In the belly of a whale
At the bottom
Of the ocean...
(Yeah...)
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up
(Yeah...)
Empty all your pockets
Because it's time...
To come home
(Yeah...)
The smell of air conditioning
The fish are belly up... (Yeah...)
Let it go
Today
Is the first day
Of the rest of your days...
So lighten up, squirt
