Also Frightened - Animal Collective

Venture my way into the dark where we can sweat

One takes one by the hand

Let them crawl into the logs that dam

Brown jeans the hue of their path

Excited and screamin' their voices grow wild

And rise with the birds mating up in the pines

Down to puddles that breathe, covered by leaves

With mud they’ll make prints on their backs

Will it be just like they’re dreaming?

Will it be just like I’m dreaming?

Will it be just like they’re dreaming?

Will it be just like I’m dreaming?

If they’re awake till the dawn, well we won’t

Fret that they don’t have our eye

The ghosts came crowding around and then

I woke, you slept there on your side

From our window, two lanterns draw signs on the night

And light our two shadows, I watch with delight

Will I want them to be who they will be Or to be more like their dad?

Will it be just like they’re dreaming?

Will it be just like I’m dreaming?

Will it be just like they’re dreaming?

Will it be just like I’m dreaming?

When influence is threatened

Maybe I should let them

Maybe we should let them

And I have a question:

Are you also frightened?

No one should call you a dreamer

Not now!
