Enter shikari

Myopia

Enter shikari
Drip drip drop, bit by bit, it's the dulcet sound of the glacial melt
Accompanied by the beluga, singing about the hand they've been dealt
The emperor and the arctic fox listen intently
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life

Yes, they're lost in myopia

Surrounded by ostriches with mouths full of sand
Their teeth grind the grains, but their faces don't contort
Perplexed, I am unable to breathe in their skin
We are all vertebrates but where is their backbone now?

I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune

As the emperor watches his numbers plummet
They hear him scream
They're living in denial of science
They're happy to defile, silence
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune

Deprived is the polar bear, grasping at straws
To safeguard dividends they depend on disbelief
Perplexed I am unable to breathe in their skin
We are all vertebrates but where is their backbone now?

I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune
I'm beginning to get glimpses of what is called real life
He says, meaning misfortune

As the emperor watches his numbers plummet
They hear him scream
They're living in denial of science
They're happy to defile, silence
