GMT Lyrics by Jack Peñate

After You

2019

I never found my way home
Being kept in the dirt like an earthworm
I'm the father of all landmines and everyone corner is a mourner of the good times
But to (???) you were Venus
Love lost when we stopped being dreamers
And I know I got fevers
That's what happens when the ghost leaves us

'Cause I'm itching all over
Cover the scratch with a patch on my shoulder
It's the place that used to hold you
Time travel to a love move boulders
'Cause I know you got saviours, and I know you can save us
Well go on, go leave
Even after all that we've been through

'Cause I've built myself a mountain
With the hope of a fool to go on
Can't see where I'm going
Can't turn back no more

Living on the river like Herman Hess
I was learning nothing til the lesson end
But the letters read into amends
Face to face, watch our minds bend
Oh, to show we're in vain
Hair pull idea just to clear drains
I promise I'll find a way
Out of the grip, 'cause when I'm high

I can't see beneath the clouds, I need to find
Need to find my way back down to mean time
Mean time, mean time, oh mean time

Running wasn't working so I had to stop
Look around for the sound of the penny drop
Didn't see you at the mirror cloaked
But they key to be free didn't need a lock
Relations alarming
When you used to embalm me
All your truth in the ointments
Of regret and resentment

I could see the vision of another man
From my shoes I could prove that I understand
To live it all miracle enough
To love the loss that liberates us
I surpassed and sweetly dissolves
Could feel the fortunes resolve
'Cause I let go glimmers of gold, the shop shut and sold

When I'm high
I can't see beneath the clouds, I need to find
Need to find my way back down to mean time
Mean time, mean time, mean time

('Cause I built myself a mountain) Built myself a mountain
(With the hope of a fool I go on) With the hope of a fool I go on
(Can't see where I'm going) No, I can't see where I'm going
(Won't turn back no more) No, won't turn back

When I'm high ('Cause I built myself a mountain)
I can't see beneath the clouds, I need to find (with the hope a fool I go on)
Need to find my way back down to mean time (can't see where I'm going)
Mean time, mean time, mean time (won't turn back no more)

(When I'm high)
(Need to find)
(Need to find)
(Need to find)
