[Verse 1]
Round and round and round
And I got found like a Vesuvius skeleton
At the bottom of hell, and you could bury my ashes
Flashin’ baskets of ashes;
Matches the patches of lashes
As if (azure the pastures of heaven)
Actually bashing my head in
Actually fast as a pyroclastic flow and nowhere
Near as deadly as your fellow men. It’s relevant
Hell, if it’s any better forget it
Get a handkerchief, wet it
I remember you said it:
Explain the way aims lead to dead ends
You can frame the way you think
The way you wink at dead men
You can think about the lava slippin on down to town
You can think about the muthafuckas shaking the ground
You can think about them watchin’ from the opposite town
You can think about the barkin’ dogs afraid to drown
When they hit it, forbid it, but shit, it glittered in the middle
Admit it, you miss it, I miss it, and cities relive it
And set it down
Ignore the simmering ground, and let it down, down
Feel the deities frown, and look around, round
Savor seminal sounds
While you listen, get the image like the final allowed
And when it ends, we ain't got shit left to mend
We ain't got nothin that’s static
But we can always pretend, so let’s pretend
[Chorus 1]
We had letters and and a picnic and a plan and everything
And I let you drive cause you look free behind the wheel
To put it simply, I ain't got shit to do but dream
Now I’m lookin down to remember the trees, like
What caught the light--was it needles or leaves?
What caught me first with them subtle degrees
In the leaves? If you keep me bereaved, I got
Seminal moments to uncover what you mean
Wish I could tell you that I love it when you speak
Come and help me find a presence in your absence
Call me up, hear me splashin in some absinthe
Wish I could speak about you like bitchin’ passage
It's been a minute since I balanced on my axis
[Verse 2]
I celebrate you like I know what's going on, and
I got no business tellin’ you, help me with my song
Crackin’ it up cuz I got enemies in my lawn, but
Pay attention it goes on and on and on
LIft it up to the sky if you got one
Sunlight when it's warm mean I lost one
Talk some, won't you talk some?
Won't you talk to me like it's 2010 and 1
AM? We could stay up for the hell of it
When it's 10 we got some urgency, so make it quick
So make it stick and limit it; your facade is so paper-thin
I perceive that you got personality not fake as shit
So why your eyes the vacantest?
And when it's 10 you may not say you quit
But can’t you wish for supersim?
We play until the whistle
This'll be here when the morning hits
But say now wait a minute
Explain the way aims lead to dead ends
You can frame the way you think
The way you wink at dead men
And we got visible limits but we can always pretend
[Chorus 2]
I remember the way that you got away from everything, and you
Looked so sorry for the deer beneath the trees, and you
Made me coffee with it steaming through the leaves, and you
Left the tent undone so I could fake my sleep, and you
Walk around so light, don’t sound like anything, and you
Left the tent undone so I could watch you leave
Through the leaves, if you keep me bereaved, I got
Seminal moments to uncover what you mean
Wish I could tell you that I love it when you speak
Come and help me find a presence in your absence
Call me up, hear me splashin’ in some absinthe
Wish I could speak about you like bitchin’ passage
It's been a minute since I balanced on my axis
You should have this, lookin’ at it, think it’s tragic?
But haven’t you grasped it?
We could suffer, yeah, but we could pull a hat trick
[Bridge: Catherine Coffey]
Dont walk away, don't walk away
Give me a week, a day, an hour, just a night
I'll catch up, I'll catch up
[Chorus 2]
I remember the way that you got away from everything, and you
Looked so sorry for the deer beneath the trees, and you
Made me coffee with it steaming through the leaves, and you
Left the tent undone so I could fake my sleep, and you
Walk around so light, don’t sound like anything, and you
Left the tent undone so I could watch you leave
Through the leaves, if you keep me bereaved, I got
Seminal moments to uncover what you mean
Wish I could tell you that I love it when you speak
Come and help me find a presence in your absence
Call me up, hear me splashin’ in some absinthe
Wish I could speak about you like bitchin’ passage
It's been a minute since I balanced on my axis
You should have this, lookin’ at it, think it’s tragic?
But haven’t you grasped it?
We could suffer, yeah, but we could pull a hat trick
