lyrics

I am swimming in the mouth of a dragon
I am zigging I am zagging we are working on a truce
I am swimming in the mouth of a dragon
The many are always wagging trigger fingers at the few

Stay calm stay calm
I am swimming in the mouth of a dragon

She's got a good heart, I think she's got a good heart
Stay calm
She's got a good, yes, I think he's got a good heart
Stay calm
Stay calm stay calm

I am swimming in the mouth of a dragon
I am swimming in the mouth of a dragon
I am racing my reflection I am reaching for the fume
Stay calm stay calm

I've never had anyone close to me die
Most of my tragedies are all in my mind
Even if you think that there is nothing to say
Call me anyway, call me call me anyway
You hear a siren in the distance outside
Another soul on the assembly line
So many folks with little reason to pray
They call him anyway, call me call me anyway
When I was a kid I would get lost in the woods
Man the fireflies were everywhere
When I would whistle and they would all disappear
And then they'd reappear, disappear and reappear

Even though I knew that I had nothing to say
I called them anyway, call me call me anyway
Even if you think that you'll have nothing to say
Call me anyway, call me call me anyway
Even if you think that you'll have nothing to say
Call me anyway, call me call me anyway
