Lyrics
We need a place for that
Somewhere to store it
Sure
Somewhere it can't escape
In a place it can't afford
Somewhere beyond recall
Beyond the reach of names
Somewhere it learns to love
The boundaries of its cage
We need a place for that
We need a place for that
We need a place for that
Let's put it in a cage
Let's prey upon its little ones
When more and more they make
We need a place for that
A cycle self-sustained
Every birth another vessel
Every death begins again
Blood, bones and skin make good containers
We need a place for that
But it must be entertained
Preach it to look upon the pedestals
So it won't question anything
Give it kingdoms
Give it wars
Give it answers to adore
Never let it ask the question
Of what it was before
We need a place for that
We need a place for that
We need a place for that
Let's trap it up real tight
And when it turns to ashes
Tell it to run on toward the light
Back to where it all began
Time to start things over
Welcome to your new life
Such delicate frames make good containers
Erase the names
Preserve the cycle
Nothing leaves
Nothing remembers
Count the vessels
Seal the fractures
Harvest hope
Repeat forever
We need a place for that
Somewhere it can't escape
Back to where it all began
Time to start things over
Welcome to your new life
Welcome to your old prison
Blood, bones and skin
Make good containers
We need a place for that
