Century Eyes Lyrics - Shearwater

You were not the first to arrive 

Will not be the last to survive 

The pigs and the oxen we bound to the wheel 

Turn it off, turn it off 

You are not the last of this house 

Or the first to go over the side 

Remember the wrecks of those elegant ships 

Turn it off, turn it off 

Look with century eyes, they make you go blind 

Galloping into the void 

You are rolling your eyes like a horse 

All to turn form the beam 

From the eye of that screen 

Turn it off, turn it off 

With our backs to the arch 

And the wreck of our kind 

We will stare straight ahead 

For the rest of our lives
