Everywhere I look today
I just find another one dying
Another one crying
Another one trying to be owning all the land mines
And I don't want to feel this way
Sometimes I'd just like to pack up our house
Drive into the sunset cut off all the loose ends
And let the world end there
I walked past a crying lady
Lying in a sleeping bag
Underneath Etihad Stadium

Sort of like a souvlaki but with a "Western" slant
Yeah I'm so highbrow I'm some human
I'm in a talisman tailspin
I'm on an island nation
With angry ghosts
Taking it back to the gringos
Here, let me make myself alluring to you
What's the doctor want to see happen to me?
Believe me when I'm nasal and I'm having troubles
Conceiving a child
Dry and burning
Weep or wallow
Thru the open house with the elegant bedding
She's crouching down to feed the pigeons
And all I can think of are the vicious spectators
And the spent come orbiting
Around the money
Until my sweat stares them down,
Sincerely
What's this in my kitchen?
Who's that lurking through my future?
Mental power affirmations
But you wind up chopping wood for days
It's time to soak my broken ankles and to feel the meltdown
Coming in through the window
So now I walk the wizard
I'm hearing everything
I'm fishing for money
With banalities
Go ahead and pump my throat chock full of peanut butter
And say: "Serve yourself and force another"
Serve yourself and force another
And the impotent men
Gonna keep their regrets and they left their kids and their wives for dead
And they tried to act like they're the better person
But just efficiently go
Repeating the patterns
Dry and warm

"Orlando furious" say it while you spread your hands wide
Do it again and again until you feel like you might be a gif file
"Orlando furious" "Orlando furious"
Hoonin' around on my cyclops bicycle
Dodging jeeps getting driven by Instagram models
And keeping calm with repetitive music
Keeping calm with repetitive music
I heard you been hiding out in waves of fear
Within shallow caves
Stockpiling bows and spears and swords and slings
Orlando furious sighted in the distance
Unarmed, without armour, welcomed by the Queen of Iceland?
*Ahem* Mister furious?
Yes I am the WildCard
Don't mess with me
Likely to turn you into a station wagon with poor fuel economy
And then try to sell you in the inner city
Where nobody appreciates your true value
Hoonin' around on my cyclops bicycle
Dodging jeeps getting driven by Instagram models
And keeping calm with repetitive music
Keeping calm with repetitive music

Bitumen

Invested in the bitumen
Kissing in the dirt
Sifting through the holes for a future you don't need to bother with
Sucking thru a metal rod
Burning down the hatch
There's some ppl tryna tell me there'll be more here in a million years
I'm mostly plant matter
I'm part running water
I'm a quarter visionary
And three parts an empty vacuum
I'm gonna fool u in
I will investigate
Then I will have a rest
To look for other signals
I need a safety blanket, so
Cover me with your fingers, please
I've got a cluttered closet, hell
I will set fire to everything
This one goes out to brain damage
And to acting aloof at parties
Treat me like your stepping stone
Whatever just embed my body
I'm mostly plant matter
I'm part running water
I'm a quarter visionary
And three parts an empty vacuum
I'm gonna fool u in
I will investigate
Then I will have a rest
To look for other signals
I'm back at war again
And I'm in doubt for all anniversaries

Neighbours

I can tell the neighbours are thinking about and stealing my things
I'm feeling like the worst is always going to happen
I will call you tomorrow? No tomorrow you're sick
I will call you the next day? Yep sure,
Whenever I tell you I'm tired you tell me you're lonesome
You give me the slip I wrote down my number
I give you my kiss I give you my body
We gonna leave it to dry to see what colour it turns
Place inside the space the neighbours are see through

Kind Again
04:42

Now I've got this feeling that I might've wasted half my life
Living in this empty ravine
Oh god I've gone n left all my people behind
But now I'd like to try
No I mean like really try something with you
Why don't we go getting in deep together I mean
If it doesn't work we'll just end it later..
I love you, obviously I love you
I'm loving your honesty and all of your promises I'm loving your honesty and all of your promises, that said
I've got something I'd like to talk about to you
You're always in the papers you're too busy for me now and just as busy later
If you want to be trying you've got to give me some of your time
Make me some of your time boy
And share that NRG around
But if you want to leave, leave me with some dignity
You've got to say it to my face I'm hearing you've been creeping round behind my back
Nuh uhh I love you, obviously I love you..
Dahlin, dahlin, dahlin I swear to you open me up and stretch me out
This is what you're gonna get
Another little tender heart who's feeling strong enough to be kind again
You're picking me apart at the seams I'm watching while you're photographing the dead
Here's a little more of my time I'm feeling strong enough to be kind again

Chained & Satan
04:30

Spewed my guts out over Xmas
And when I woke up it was May
I had been seen wasting my share of the planet
Man I'm sorry if I was cold when I saw you on the train
But who is gonna clean up after my wedding?
And where will I ditch my broke TV?
I'm using my eyes to examine these corners
Resonating my aura to make you sure of my pedigree
I've been chained and I've been satan
Laugh me off you're mocking the chosen one
Who is your boss? And what's he saying?
Ah what's he know about any of his sisters?
I took some time to see myself in the cistern
I'm declaring prisoners should go free regardless
I'm promoting weedlings to positions of power
All cos they said the right words and they filled out the paper work
You don't need a vision when you're this far from the trenches
What use have you got for rhythm when your passion is a paycheque?
Share it out evenly you can share in our splendour
Help you get wealthy whatever that means to ya
And give you a hand but not so that I can take over you
No I'll be your confidante I'll complement your energy
And if I'm being mischievous I need you to laugh freely
Or tell me no but without any grudges
I've been chained and I've been satan
Laugh me off you're mocking the chosen one
Who is your boss? And what's he saying?
Ah what's he know about any of his sisters?
