Animal CollectiveAbout
The title, “Lying in the Grass,” refers not only to reclining, but also to lying as a deception.

Lying in the Grass Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All the pieces where they ought to be
But it's clear that he don't look like me
Pick a place around the table talk
Make a push to wake the comatose
Say you pause to say what's wrong
And quickly blow up the cover
There’s a way through fogs as long as there’s a light to discover (it)
[Bridge 1]
Like a twisted stick, let's dig through the sick
And find a level space
Cinch to say
[Verse 2]
It's a gut that fears all things unknown
And a link within the brain you know
Not a shame to say the instinct's there
But a virtue to deny the bait
Know the cause and move to gauze and deftly
Tratar o sangue
In the lawn there's room to move
As there's a need to uncover it
[Bridge 2]
As a choker sucks, let's sift through the muck
And lift this dingy veil
Same old tale
[Chorus 1]
Get mixed in this crippling fixture
Try and approach the hidden mixtures
Get mixed in this crippling fixture
Try and approach the hidden picture
[Bridge 3]
For a misplaced stash, let's search through the trash
And write this ignorant lurch
Wicked urge
[Chorus 2]
Raise the gab above a whisper
Speak to salve a spoiling blister
Raise the gab above a whisper
Talk to cure a blister picture
