you’re my avatar
hold your nose and take another sip
piled up in my car
every cd that you ever ripped
you’re adhesive tape
roll you out whenever we’re unstuck
finally taking shape
honestly I can’t believe my luck
reeking animal
permanently following you round
I got into find someone standing naked in my lounge
Artificial light
Moving until I don’t know up from down
Our ambassador is spoiling us
You’re spoiling us
I don’t know where that is
Get someone to describe your surroundings
I don’t know where that is
Get someone to describe your surroundings
(no, no)
I am sure I had something to say before I came in
I am sure I had something to say before I came in
It’s not without it’s charm
So much left to learn and more to teach
You set off alarms
5 to 15 minutes between each
dramatized events
every time I see it it’s repeats
you’re the 10%
bring you gifts and leave them at your feet
I don’t know where that is
Get someone to describe your surroundings
I don’t know where that is
Get someone to describe your surroundings
I am sure I had something to say before I came in
I am sure I had something to say before I came in

It’s just sad
Why are you leaving
Why don’t you want it
It’s the type you attract
Feel that
Why won’t you feel it
Admiring a product is a sign you’re relaxed
I got a message and it’s time that I put it down
And when I do I’ll take you down in the process
Were your exact words
You’re a method actor
You’re an artist
An artist
You are
You’re blessed
So clear
Something else is here
Something must have changed
to make the control shift
Still standing making your demands
It’s hardly holding hands and
Driving off of a cliff
Grow up
Listen to yourself
Grow up
Listen to yourself
It’s someone else entirely
It’s just sad
Why are you leaving
Why don’t you want it
It’s the type you attract
Feel that
Why won’t you feel it
Admiring a product is a sign you’re relaxed

Sprawled endorphins
Sculptural lust
Reclined on a chaise longue slightly concussed
All your experiences are the same
But my circumstances are constantly changing
All night my likeness said I’m looking pale
Your life’s work carried out and burned
Invite us underneath the veil
A gradually lifting Gaussian blur
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
So tireless trying to make it work
Line up in silence
All of us feel the same
So tireless trying to make it work
Line up in silence
All of us feel the same
Timeless
Design this and make it your own
Unthinking I sink with it into the loam
Thoughts are absorbed in it
Warped and absurd
A gradually lifting Gaussian blur
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up for days
You’ve been up
So tireless trying to make it work
Line up in silence
All of us feel the same
So tireless trying to make it work
Line up in silence
All of us feel the same

Honestly, Don't Get Up

How do you recognise yourself?
You told me that your father was killed in Sweden
We know that that was someone else
And why do you suppose that would make us even?
Yes, I am calling into check
Listen, I am checking in
I am calling into check
Side to side around me
No, honestly, don’t get up
It would’ve been alright if you hadn’t found me
Cause I would’ve sniffed you out
Something of a crowd building up behind me
Trying to get out the door
Why don’t you do something that we can’t ignore
You’re suddenly beside yourself
And someone had to force you to say the reason
You’re lucky we arrived with help
You’re lucky we were there to absorb the feeling
But obviously I know, that was a while back now
Yeah, obviously, I know
That was a while back now
And I am calling into check
Side to side around me
No, honestly, don’t get up
It would’ve been alright if you hadn’t found me
Cause I would’ve sniffed you out
Something of a crowd building up behind me
Trying to get out the door
Why don’t you do something that we can’t ignore
I’m trying to adjust the lighting
So that we can all relax
Don’t know what it is that is so inviting
Or what we do after that
Something of a crowd building up behind me
Trying to get out the door
Why don’t you do something that we can’t ignore
Listen, I am checking in
Calling into check
Calling into check
Listen, I am checking in
Calling into check
Calling into check
Listen, I am checking in
Calling into check
Calling into check
Listen, I am checking in
Calling into check
Calling into check

You and I are not in opposition
Not in opposition
You and I are not in opposition
Not in opposition
I’m having such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
You and I are not in opposition
Not in opposition
You and I are not in opposition
Not in opposition
I’m having such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
Honestly, I’ve had such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
It’s better if I make a decision
Make a decision for you all this time
Stay in position
Same as it was before
It’ll lead you to that then
It’ll lead you to something else
It’ll lead you to that then
It’ll lead you to something else
And I’m having such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
Honestly, I’ve had such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
Honestly, I’ve had such a nice time
Why would you spoil it with your wrong opinion
