Modest Mouse - History Sticks to Your Feet lyrics

At the movies, eyes iced over, walking sideways, through them gutters And you realize that the floor sticks to your feet like history Well don't you look at me like life don't hold you anymore mystery Bag of splinters boiling over, on your back expose your belly Optimism doesn't change the facts, just what you're gonna see Like it was stated that we're walking salt and coal Plants solidify sunshine, how'd this start, I don't know Causing feet and entire chain shoe stores The sun's diary pulled up from deep canary holes And when we read it, our skin, it becomes warm At the movies, eyes iced over, walking sideways, through the gutter And you realize life sticks to your feet, your history I'm gonna slap that look off your face like life don't hold no mystery All those red marks on our shoulders Self back patting, homemade trophies Well the past only exists as tiny bricks we burn to release all it's memory I've had enough with rolling boulders, I want more moss on me Clocks to splinters but time goes forward And when them trees drop leaves your feet collect their memories I guess all us snakes find our tails pretty damn tasty!! I heard you mention we're walking salt and coal Plants solidify sunshine, how'd it start, I don't know Causing feet and entire chain shoe stores The sun's diary pulled up from deep canary holes And when we read it, our skin, it becomes quite warm At the movies, eyes iced over Walking sideways, through the gutters And you realize that the floor sticks to your feet, your history I'm gonna knock that look off your face like life don't hold you no more mystery
