lyrics

We were
Headed to gold
Tripped all last summer time
Which helped us slow
The time going by

The birds, the sea, the fog, the rust
All around us
Oh, we're right on time
To the beach
Where the people lie

Oh, go swiftly
Oh, we're gonna back you up
Minesweeper
We're all gonna die
If you don't move up

The wind, the sounds, the shouts, the feet
On like lightning
It really felt as though we could
Drift away
In a bad way

No fear, no love, no loss, no damn
Hesitation
Only what we've always wanted
To be, here, in the moment

Oh, go swiftly
Oh, we're gonna back you up
Minesweeper
Either we all die, or you move up
