Have you ever caught yourself thoroughly enjoying an Explosions in the Sky track and thought there might be something lacking? Like, I don’t know, lyrics? Us too. Anyway, it’s totally understandable why a band would just forgo lyrics altogether. After all, most bands just slap words together last minute. Not us, though. We have standards.
We spent almost an entire hour and a half writing actual words to a select few of their songs that you can easily use to follow along with at home. You can thank us later. So without further ado, here are the official lyrics to a bunch of EITS songs. Also, you’re welcome.
“First Breath After Coma”
Your first breath after coma
Was a relief to us all
Thought you were gone for good
After I rammed you with my car
[Gang vocals]
Coma, coma, coma
Please come home-a
Battered, bruised, and beaten
I nearly sent you to your end
But instead you fell into a coma
Hope we can still be friends
[Gang vocals]
Coma, coma, coma
Please come home-a
“Your Hand In Mine”
Your hand, my hand
Let’s put that shit together
Tonight will be special
As I destroy you in our weekly arm wrestle
The mood is just right
For this hand-to-hand fight
We’ll battle to the death
Or at least ‘til we’re out of breath
“Welcome, Ghosts”
Whoa oh oh
Welcome ghosts!
Welcome ghouls and welcome ghosts
You’re here because my seance worked
And now you’re haunting my house
All because I sacrificed a live mouse
Whoa oh oh
Welcome ghosts!
You’re welcome to spook us here
Or scare anyone far and near
We’ll forever feel your presence
Because unfortunately I can’t reverse this seance
“Six Days At The Bottom Of The Ocean”
It’s been…
Six days since our ship sank to the bottom of the ocean
Five days since you told me you loved me
Four days since we ran out of things to talk about
Three days since we ran out of food entirely
But it’ll still be one week ’til I say I’m sorry for crashing our vessel in the middle of the sea
Six days stranded in the middle of the ocean
Five days since we almost cannibalized each other
Four days since we completely lost our minds
But it’ll still be one week ’til I say I’m sorry for crashing our vessel in the middle of the ocean
