lyrics

I know that you can see me standing in the pitch dark, you know my aim is always true. Although, while we wait for our moment, there's always something starts to shine; something stuck in the road. I see the way you're checking out the things that I loot when I create my distractions. Maybe it's just the angles, babe. Maybe it's gravity, not our small infractions. There's no mystical remedy, and no comfort when, we both say, "If you watch my back, I'll watch your yours, until the torches fizzle out." Did we get so encumbered that we forgot that we can't move? Why you always joke about my armour class. You level up in the village. I see how much experience you steal from me. This - it wasn't in the prenup. Wait for either me or you to cut the brakes. Cos you and I know statistics are the only things that keep us alone, while we're sitting here side by side. So take a razor to the spine. Cut the faces out all day, 'til it feels like you are waking. You'll never make your face or mine from the paper scraps. We - we are not there for the making. I KNOW YOU CAN SEE ME STANDING IN THE PITCH DARK YOU KNOW MY AIM IS ALWAYS TRUE. Did we get so encumbered that we forgot that we can't move? I know that you can see me standing in the pitch dark you know my aim is always true. All that we have left to do with our mistakes; each to play the rhetorician.

about

Thumpermonkey London, UK

A person in space, walking, or adrift, but safe, exploring, freedom, discovery.

A clockwork piano contraption, like a giant ballerina box, but turning a big totem pole, around which smart office dressed people slowly dance with dead glazed eyes as a slightly out of tune slow Satie-like Lydian melody loops round.

White men in pith helmets hunting large animals to extinction.
