Mindless Lyrics by Father Koi

Late Afternoon National Anthem

2020

New York City, different times
Central park, different lights
You buy a sandwich to share and our fingers touch

How can I make it clear
That for the span of a summer you were
There to hold me close and then fall apart

Four in the afternoon doesn’t exist
Search within you, it’s gone amiss
And I can’t stay with you during the night

Mindless
Keep it mindless
Ask me why people come and go so quickly
Use your hands
Play a song for me
Don’t pay me no mind
I’ll sit and watch your beautiful hands

You know I don’t believe in magic
My dear, me and you is a tragedy
Waiting to happen, and now I must turn away

Newspaper showing a hurricane
Beautiful and terrible just like you
My love, so bad at a prisoner’s game

Eight in the evening doesn’t exist
Reality, a connection missed
But I can’t stay with you during the night

Mindless
Keep it mindless
Ask me why people come and go so quickly
Use your hands
Play a song for me
Don’t pay me no mind
I’ll sit and watch your beautiful hands

Mindless
Keep it mindless
Ask me why people love you and than leave you
Use your hands
Play a song for me
Don’t pay me no mind
I’ll sit and watch your beautiful hands

Tripped and fell on my own ego
Nervous hands, I pull away
Yeah I’m cynical until the bitter end

Existence is a contraband
Like wine I get drunk on your hands
So soft I didn’t know they were even there
