Empire Ants Lyrics

Oh joy's arise
The sun has come again to hold you
Sailing out the doldrums of the whole week
The polyphonic prairies here, it's all around you
It's all around you, out here

    I agree with the guy who said little dragon's part is about infant work (not only in china)

    but also, i would add my reckon about the first part, that slow and calming one:

    i see those words telling us that we, and i risk to say we do it a lot, forget too much of our truthful dreams, things we really wanted to do
    the lead singer sings:

    "and if the whole world is crashing down
    fall throught soace out of mind with me
    where emptyness de e leave behing on warm air rising
    those all the shadows
    all the weight"

    i do guess it's clearly calling someone to set himself free and start enjoying life as much as possible, no matter what is happening around

    but it's just my opnion, tough

    i don't wanna fight, just trying to help

    thanks for reading :)
