Lyrics Head by Head - Giant Rooks

Head by Head

Turned to stone
Swimming deep beneath the foam
Insensibly I’ll roam
First a glint, soon a shining light
Far from beyond
I paint it big
Next I’ll shoot and squash it
I don’t know what the hell is going on
But I’m not alone
I take a deep breath
I’m moving forward
They watch my spirit bow down
And came for the show-down
Head by head but far away
They can’t freeze the time
They cannot steal our fire
Call me up, I’ll calm you down
You pull me in, I’ll pull you out
'Cause we don’t have to
Do it on our own
The sadness drink
You took too much of it
As we grew older
Shoulder to shoulder
And when you fall
Give me a call because
Some like digging holes
We’ll just fly above
Head by head but far away
They can’t freeze the time
They cannot steal our fire
Call me up, I’ll calm you down
You pull me in, I’ll pull you out
'Cause we don’t have to
Do it on our own
I paint it big
Next I’ll shoot and squash it
I don’t know what the hell is going on
But I’m not alone
You know my thoughts
Right before the curtain drops
Here comes the showdown
I’ll never let you down
Head by head but far away
They can’t freeze the time
They cannot steal our fire
Call me up, I’ll calm you down
You pull me in, I’ll pull you out
'Cause we don’t have to
Do it on our own
In my mind’s eye like you said
They can’t freeze the time
They cannot steal our fire
Call me up, I’ll calm you down
You pull me in, I’ll pull you out
'Cause we don’t have to
Do it all again
My mind used to hide
But those times are over
But those times are over ooh
My mind used to hide
But those times are over
But those times are over ooh
My mind used to hide
But those times are over
But those times are over ooh
My mind used to hide
But those times are over
But those times are over ooh
My mind used to hide
But those times are over
But those times are over ooh
