Lyrics Modest Mouse – Be Brave
Text:
From day, to day, to day, to day to today
From day, to day, to day, to day to today
We carry, we carry, we carry our own weight
From day, to day, to day, to day to today
As sharks in sheep’s clothing
Pumping with our hips
Filling every single corner with our soft little gifts of ourselves
Getting carried so
So carried away
I am not afraid to be dead
But it’s scary for me to stay
From day, to day, to day, to day to today
But be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave
Be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave
At the Parthenon
Ants were climbing ’round
Every head of bronze
At the Parthenon
Another monster hiding inside of a cave
We go from day to day misbehaving
In the most appropriate ways
The unicorns missing last call to get on Noah’s ship
We don’t quit, we won’t quit, we can’t quit
We just don’t quit
Well the Earth doesn’t care
And we hardly even mattered
We’re just a bit more piss to push out of it’s full bladder
And as our bodies break down
Into all their rocky little bits
Piled up under mountains of dirt and silt and still
But be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave
Be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave
Be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave, be brave
Ants were climbing ’round
All them heads of bronze
At the Parthenon
The ants are climbing on
