Lyrics

Boy with Stick

If I had to settle up now, I'd really need to find you

If we have to die alone, let's take a walk and watch the bugs fuck

Like when you sleep still

I knew one day you'd die, I promised not to cry

A noise inside a mind, and everything is fine

And the world rings on the next blue, or heaven kissed a road to you

And I have to spot it in you

You'd gradually, between the sunsets, touch me with your eyes

But I come clean from your tears now, I really hate to shine

And I have to settle up now, a million billion souls, so always know I tried

I knew one day you'd die, I promised not to cry

A noise inside a mind, and everything is fine

And everything is fine
