Behind the Beat

I always thought I’d relocate to America – playing hearts with the dukes of ’06,
But I’m sucking the polarity out of my conscious and stripping the excitement from underneath my feet,
Oh I swear, I’m not sorry I’ll never change.
I swear her eyes they stung the sun, because I’d been staring at them for three fucking months,
I’d fall into this vicious cycle quarterly on the day,
Find my pretty muses on this piss weak wage, but I swear,
I’m not sorry I’ll never change.
Me and Tim we were the gods of Foveaux, we were adolescent royalty – had that fire in our souls.
I’m sorry it fell apart and I’m sorry I let you down; I was never as beaten as you man.
But I’m not sorry I never changed.
I always find myself falling behind the beat, dancing with my pulse and shuffling my feet through this circus full of dense mimes, my soul’s full of blisters.
If there is one thing I’ve noticed, hindsight never whispers.
I swear to god, I’m not sorry I’ll never change.

Give Me Yours

You're a god,
Your space, it fills with sudden grace that muzzles all the skeptics, parting skies apace.
Yeah your mark's been left - it's pounded into my chest.
I just hope I'm not your shadow - yeah I'm dumb but I'm not deaf.
So I trade it all for one, one day in your sun.
I'll give you all for everything.
May these bones be meek, tangled in your heap.
So give me yours for everything,
Give me yours.
And I know it seems I've hedged my hopes for glee,
Drifting from the pavement,
Blotching history,
But I'll drink to you - heroics all subdued if you give me just one moment to zeal this mirrored view.
I'll give it all for one, one day in your sun,
I'll give you all for everything.
Let me wrap your limbs around these words I spin.
Yeah give me yours for everything,
Give me yours.
(Sink your eyes)
Fuck your fear - the smell of yesteryear,
The gusto in your stare is all I need.
So I'll trade it all for one, one day in your sun,
I'll give you all for everything.
Yeah this heart's a bloom, it's built for only you.
Yeah give me yours for everything.
Give me yours for everything.

I was there, in the dark for a while with my parachute, gliding into the guile.
In the summer heat, ’98 was splash.
How it tortured me, holding me to love.
We marked ourselves with a saying – “I want everything, when everything is saved – when everything has changed.
Prey on the young and dumb, charm us fuckers with your wayward puns.
Here we are, holding onto your ‘love’.

June

My clock it weeps - the seconds start to leak,
the iridescent embers start to grey,
And I bet I'll look back at regrets and marvel at my yearn,
The wealth of youth to spurn,
Bitter at the sparkle in my clones.
Demon help me tonight and wish away this sight,
Take me back to when I was young and dumb; simply deep in lust with all the unknowns - rippled in endless glow,
When everything was bright by the dozen.
In droves we'd lay across the sand and revelled in our swoon.
Take me back to that time when dreamers didn't die in June.
When I throw my arms at the restlessness of love,
Like you spit you fire at my worn and calloused scruff.
Oh lecture me with those fortune teller eyes but don't award me with words - I'm a stranger to your world.
Take me back to when I was young and dumb; simply deep in lust with all the unknowns - rippled in endless glow,
When everything was bright by the dozen.
In droves we'd lay across the sand and revel in our swoon.
Take me back to that time when dreamers didn't die in June.

Too Many Thousand & 16
04:18

In the clasp of your left hand,
Choked up hope for eternal youth,
And when that prince comes along and says he does - he clings to you.
Just remember that I told you, the rose wont grip like its roots,
Because your blame is the focus – And I just want to spend my life with you.
Shed your rags and test the ocean,
See if you can swim in this deep mystique,
Cause god only knows I’m waiting – I just want to spend my life with you.
There I stand like a deer in the headlights,
Chastity tied by the vine of baby’s breath.
The vultures will come swooping, hell they’ve started cause baby I’m on my last legs.
So let me just sit here in this moment – reminisce the times when I was drunk on your perfume.
I bet there’s still a danger in your gut – Cause I just want to spend my life with you.
Steer the headlights,
Blind emotion,
Steer your headlights across my ocean.
