[Instrumental Intro]


[Verse 1]

Dogs at the gate foaming

An energy merging living and fantasy

Dusting you off

Trying to shine you

It's corroded crumbling

Destined for fumbling


[Chorus]

All of the imaginary friends

Faking the fantasy

Draping in cobwebs

An abandoned memory

Arises from the cave dark in apathy

The task makes her happy when energy's lacking

The task makes her happy

We'd rather be laughing with you


[Verse 2]

Dogs at the gate foaming

An energy merging living and fantasy

Dusting you off

Trying to shine you

It's corroded crumbling

Watching them tumbling


[Chorus]

All of the imaginary friends

Faking your history

Draping in cobwebs

The neglected little things

Arise in the dusk

The dusk darkens everything

The task makes her happy when energy's lacking

The task makes me happy when energy's lacking
