Lyrics
Just outside the city
I was holding some things no one's ever seen before
Its eyes were kind of pretty
Its irises were blacked out
And its scales were made of gold
Even through the flash flood
I spared it every harvest
I wanted it to grow
The scientists keep knocking
And something deep within me there
Refused to let it go
I know who you are

Under something, under something
I know who you are

Under something, under something

Gave it to the city
And hoped that maybe one day it'd pass its children all its luck
It was something of a mascot
One day they had found its silver belly facing up
For a week they kept it quiet
And without a proper burial
They kept it in a jar
It was dressed until it passed the pong
It was of a field of sand
And then they spoiled the lucky charm
I know you worry

Onto something, onto something
I know who you are
Onto something, onto something

I know who you are
And something new
