Engine Down Lyrics by Quiet Lights

The Big Fear

2011

Sleep like the dead, no start no end
Nights alone, beasts not men
Cold in the dark, in the deep, in the way
Ice can melt, ice can break

Face to the sun, sparks and seeds
Wolves not dogs, run for speed
Roots and leaves

Sleep like the dead, no start no end
Nights alone, beasts not men
Cold in the dark, in the deep, in the way
Ice can melt, ice can break

Face to the sun, sparks and seeds
Wolves not dogs, run for speed
Roots and leaves, sparks and seeds
Face to the sun, sparks and seeds (Wolves not dogs)
Wolves not dogs (Run for speed), run for speed (Roots and leaves)
Roots and leaves (Sparks and seeds)

Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
Ah-ah... Ah-ah...
