Oh Sees - The Floating Coffin Lyrics






Lay on right down
Drink upwards sky
Say look away
God is in my eye

Sails filled with sky
Laughing as we rise
Sing, sing on high
Sung without a mind

Lay on right down
Drink upwards sky
Say look away
God is in my eye

Sails filled with sky
Laughing as we rise
Sing, sing on high
Sung without a mind

  2. u.... E....

    Aight ima bout to transcend

  3. v.... c....

    i just got a 24 hr ban on facebook for trying to talk about my chilhood trauma, trump 2020

  4. D.... ....

    I'll go broke trying to get all John's music...seems like a good deal

  5. C.... H....

    "No Spell" --- what an incredible song

  6. C.... M....

    Now I get it! Go for it.......

  7. D.... R....

    1. I Come From the Mountain

    Well, early morning underneath the city
    In a tunnel calling "Rescue me!"
    I come from the mountain, I've returned again
    Without a tear, naturally
    Get out, whoo!

    Well, early morning underneath the city
    In a tunnel calling "Rescue me!"
    I come from the mountain, I've returned again
    Without a tear, naturally
    Yeah, whoo!

    Girls like to smile half the time
    Boys are the trouble all the time
    Sitting in their pockets just a dime
    Lifting hefty spirits from the slime

    No one likes a heartache or the kind
    Everyone's a problem sometimes
    Flipping over secrets day and night
    Flipping out our insides, what a fright!

    2. Toe Cutter/Thumb Buster

    Sun, we upon the cloud
    Cry, sounds from far below
    Run, 'cause it's far away
    Drums, cover up the sound

    Splash, there's blood upon the ground
    Boom, harken to the sound
    Sun, silence all around
    One, no one around

    3. The Floating Coffin

    Lay on right down
    Drink upwards sky
    Say look away
    God is in my eye

    Sails filled with sky
    Laughing as we rise
    Sing son on high
    Sung without a mind

    4. No Spell

    Horror in the night
    Easier, take a breath and sigh
    Shadows taking fight
    Easily flies right out of sight

    5. Strawberries 1+2

    Sweet cannonball
    We are neutral
    We don't belong here
    We are not persons
    But I don't really know

    Stand the slayer
    Say it normal
    Where you are
    You take it personal
    I don't readily know

    Say it low
    Information
    Say it slow
    So I learn it
    I don't readily know

    We are future
    We are persons
    Without weapons
    How refreshing
    I don't readily know

    6. Maze Fancier

    A grave inside a cave
    A maze inside a maze
    Won't grow inside of me
    Nothing inside of me
    Get lost too soon
    Turn around confused
    No brains inside of me
    No brains inside of me

    A grave inside a cave
    A maze inside a maze
    Won't grow inside of me
    Nothing inside of me
    Get lost too soon
    Turn around confused
    No brains inside of me
    No brains inside of me

    7. Night Crawler

    Subtle slayer
    Ruined kids again
    Put their light out
    It's all dark again
    And what about parents?
    Lost their kids again
    And their answer?
    Holding hands again

    Whoa the children
    Falling down a hole
    They pull their lives out
    Now they're in a hole
    What if we're cancelled?
    Not so good right now
    And what about future?
    Without kids around

    8. Sweets Helicopter

    Slayed in pairs
    What can we do with them?
    I swear I'll fly right by and exhume
    Fair and scared
    Young and dead in the dust
    I look down and see them looking up

    9. Tunnel Time

    Have a look under dishes
    And behind the TV
    I'll be flipping your lights out
    And all the space in between

    Can't remember the faces
    Or even the names
    I've been cleaning up bodies
    They all look the same to me

    I've been filling the tunnels
    With my lantern at night
    Slowly scratching the names off
    The walls of the mind for good

    10. Minotaur

    Oil slick in my dinner
    It makes me sick in the air anyhow
    And the dream upon my lips
    Is getting thinner with each day
    And yet I'm getting paid

    I get sick at my work everyday
    There is no cure but to stay away, without pay
    And the horns upon my head
    Are getting thicker with each day
    I take my meals here
    I sleep in a maze, alone

    Men get sick at their work each and every day
    There ain't no cure but to stay home today
    Go to the beach instead
    And their dreams in their heads
    Cannot be found in the maze or so they say

  8. T.... D....

    Is the pitch slightly lower in this upload?

    T.... D....

    I Think so

  9. L.... A....

    This album is Bliss!!
    Each track pulls me in 😬

  10. b.... ....

    This album kicks ass

  11. R.... R....

    One of the best bands I've personally heard since the fall

  12. o.... s....

    when a band saves your fucking life....hell yes!!

  13. N.... D....

    A5 - Strawberries 1+2 - 15:18


    We are future
    We are persons
    Without weapons
    How refreshing
    I don't readily know

  14. H.... H....

    just ordered the red vinyl after listening through headphones on a sunday. damn damn!!!

  15. J.... H....

    Thee Oh Sees shows are the best shows you can experience these days! Made my wife and I feel as good as seeing Fugazi back in high school. It must be seen but more importantly, felt!

  16. c.... ....

    Toe Cutter / Thumb Buster, Night Crawler= bangers mate

  17. P.... H....

    Nerd below

  20. L.... B....

    lovely album cover

  21. R.... B....

    Life's so hard when you're an EZ BREEZY Cover Girl. This album, Carrion Crawler and Smote Reverser are my favorites from Thee Oh Sees. LSD is alright

  22. M.... R....

    Love em !!!!!!!

  23. B.... S....

    Not indie enough. No pop sensibility. Junk. Easy to produce music. Crap.

  24. 1.... y....

    this guy at cd exchange recommended this album to fill the white stripes shaped whole in my heart. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!

  25. m.... ....

    I wish i could comment on the dumb commercials im forced to skip. Fuck your europeam voice sella atoi. I know you is budwieser.

  26. G.... E....

    New Title Sentient Oona from Smote Reverser !!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlXBFX0suh0

  27. R.... B....

    NIGHTCRAWLER!!!

  28. C.... ....

    Is "Tunnel Time" what I think it is?

  29. L.... ....

    I fucking love this album <3

  30. A.... M....

    4am listening to this while stoned alone and beer buzzin in my dark room....

    A.... M....

    Sounds lonely....

  31. k.... g....

    this album melted my face again.

  32. P.... P....

    Arguably their best album.

  33. B.... H....

    I'm not able to reason how I missed this band. Which path led me all the way down over there when the good shit is right here. I picked up some fine wine on that other weird path though. So cool, crank it up.

  34. C.... ....

    Sometimes they sound like the cramps. That rules.

  35. J.... C....

    tama lmpala just listen to the old stuff and try to recreate it this band is trying to create something different maybe not new but im a old timer and i dig it

    J.... C....

    lmao fuck off

  36. M.... D....

    This album and the masters bedroom r the best

  37. R.... B....

    There's a face in the scrawberries.

  38. A.... T....

    Minotaur.... what a tune

  39. m.... n....

    Don't know if you like speed...
    But... Have you ever tried this album 1.25x ????
    IF YOU DON'T, YOU GONNA SHIT YOUR PANTS OFF

  40. S.... C....

    Thanks YouTube for suggesting this. I was brought here after listening to full albums by Protomartyr and then Parquet Courts. Never heard of this band before today.

  41. C.... M....

    Great Neo- Psychedelic.

  42. T.... T....

    listened to no spell about 10 times in a row, i think i like it

  43. c.... ....

    WHY ISN'T THIS ON SPOTIFY!!!

    c.... ....

    it is..now at least

  44. t.... ....

    I COME FROM THE MOUNTAIN I RETURN AGAIN

  45. D.... ....

    Holy guacamole, this album is RIPE for the pickins. I'm gonna buy it to support these guys.

    D.... ....

    Amanda Lynn Music Good move, artists need all the support they can get nowadays

    D.... ....

    Good for you

  46. b.... ....

    RELATED LISTENING https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iFrrZKAYJM&t=1s

  47. K.... K....

    been listening to them for years, such a great band. much respect.

  48. L.... B....

    the amount of control and chaos he has with that guitar is somethin else..probly handles his dick the same way.

    L.... B....

    Lance Buttercream what the fuck

  49. a.... m....

    maybe its a good idea for them to make a hawkwinds silver machine cover

  50. m.... n....

    it speed it up to 1;25 and sounded so killer... specially on side B... goddamn im so stoned this album must be one of their best for sure

  51. G.... M....

    if this band had less reverb on their vocals then they'd be my favorite band

    G.... M....

    if neutral milk motel made better music they still wouldn't be my favorite band

  52. m.... h....

    Check out "Thrasher Magazine Evan Smith Spitfire" skate video. They use the song "NIGHT CRAWLER". The song fits very well with the video

  53. W.... B....

    love the opening of maze fancier

    W.... B....

    Yeah, surprisingly funky!

    W.... B....

    YES. heavy as death.

  54. B.... F....

    I like how "fuck it" all of this generations music is

    B.... F....

    "this" generation? john dwyer (the singer) is in his 40s. Gen X, baby.

  55. a.... ....

    why is the whole album slowed down o_o

    a.... ....

    You're completely right, some of these jams like toe cutter feel good slow though

  56. H.... ....

    I wish Thee Oh Sees were a legion of knights that would go around helping peasants who were being troubled by warewolves and cyclops'. Then they would break out their troubador shit and jam out and we'd all drink mead and the king would make a feast.

    H.... ....

    That comment rules. I up that comment so much.

    H.... ....

    More like aliens amd shit hahaha

    H.... ....

    Hentai404 well there is the Holy See but they kinda suck

    H.... ....

    They did that at there last show, you missed it.

    H.... ....

    Fuck yeah!! You & me both!!

  57. B.... M....

    I just met john the other day. i told him he was a legend and he rocked. He has a really polite and humble personality surprizingly.

    B.... M....

    I haven't met him, but his Nardwuar interview is pretty cool.

    B.... M....

    Met him too and have to agree with you. He's a really polite and calm person!

    B.... M....

    John is a super chill human being and a gracious rock God. The guy is artistic as F but just a guy. He invited a friend and I to a White Fence show at N35 fest in Denton several years ago. We all leaned against the wall in the shadows, drank Schlitz and laughed at life in between songs. Ran into him again in Austin a year or two later at an Oh Sees and Ty Segall show. He tried to bum a cig, but I don't smoke. We laughed. He ran across the street to a convenience store and came back huffing and puffing on a cigarette talking about how dreamy it tasted. Epitome of down to Earth.

  58. J.... M....

    NO MFKN SPELL. Love!!!

  59. R.... J....

    Album cover is a barking strawberry cyclops.

    R.... J....

    Dead can dance

    D.... D....

    HELLO, SIR. COULD I OFFER YOU SOME YOUTUBE RED? jk, get adblocker my duder.

    D.... D....

    D.... D....

    D.... D....

    @Carsten Kuehn most likely the band's label auto-placed ads on the video. look in the description, it shows that the audio was claimed.
