New Maps
by: Course Of EmpireAll the submerged direct you
Up from the hole in the sea
Swimming the floors of perception
In through your ears while you sleep
This is where the giant sleeps
Closer than air when you breathe
Long dark tunnels at ultra-speed
Locked onto frequencies
This is the map unseen
This is the map unseen
Maybe it's the bottom of a living dream
Maybe it's the blood flowing in your veins
Maybe this is what you asked for
A long thread of gold burning in your name
This is the prize you're after
In through your eyes
Wide awake instead of sleeping
(You can see your ceiling breathing)
For years you slept instead of dreaming
(This is where the unseen hides)
In through your eyes
(This is where the unseen hides)
