lyrics

I'm not going to work anymore
It's not healthy any more
As pressures soar
You know the score

This is a new foam sound
I'm gonna take it all over town

When you find it going way too far, rewind
Tonight
Cassette ribbons take you back in time rewind
Tonight

Does my curriculum vitae define my name?
Or my shit slinging fuck upping public shame?
In this uptight man's frown
Screw loose, diet juice
When the missed target swings free
Assassination bumblebee
Oiled torso not mine
Excavation landslide
Indigo beast lease
Information free feast
Rewind these times to wipe the slate clean
Try to start again, repair this rusted machine

When you find your insides burnt, rewind
Tonight
Cassette ribbons and lessons learned, rewind
Tonight

When your family photos they start to fade
Bottled wine now piss and lemonade
When the records that you've played
Start to crackle and warp
You were once a big man
Now a sparrow not a hawk
Old grit just shit
False teeth, hull breached
Dust leaf, breasts leaked
Seeped, freaked, peaked
Weakened manhood that no longer seems keen
Try to start again, repair this rusted machine

I'm not going to work anymore
It's not healthy any more
As pressures soar
You know the score
Failure's the law
I'm not leaving this attic again
In my mind I'll lock me in
The dreams inside
This place I'll hide

Sunset! Sunset! Sunset! Sunset!

You seem so tiny at night
Darkness gathers across your eyes
Crucifixes tumble from my mouth
As the crack in the sky reclaims our bones
