lyrics

My brain goes buzz… zz… zz…

Legs slung sideways over an empty bath
Sucking air through the side of her mouth between drags
She only smokes when she's high - lost a year to mephedrone
Doesn't mind the Beatles but prefers the Rolling Stones
She looked at me strangely when I told her
That'll probably all change when she's gets older
Ma fists clenched so tight, wrists twisted
Teeth grinding, eyes unfocussed on a space in the mid distance

Eccie headrush for a second makes me shiver
I take another pill watching tracers in the mirror
I wish I was a Mississippi delta blues singer
Then maybe I could wash ma sins off in the river
We trade punchlines in the June sunshine
It's still afternoon - there's too much time
Can't make ma body clockwork - tick tock
Summer got inside and made the springs unwind

I'm disassembling the mechanism
Wait. I’m misremembering the hedonism
Stomach left behind like an old tyre swing
Playing the blues on a broken violin
Meanwhile lasts forever in the portal we flew through
Battle rapping and watching adverts on YouTube
Visiting places that few knew
Bomb some Mandy then pop to the shop for cigarettes and fruit juice

Good balance is true talent but few have it
Mine’s a vod and coke and a fruit salad
The morning arrives with razor tooth talons
Warning the highs that we chase are too gallus
Must’ve drifted off for a wee while
Hello/goodbye with a bittersweet smile
Faces appear from the surroundings in mist
And if you think this story is about you then it is
