Lyrics

Year of the Sofa

Give Yourself Junk Drawer:

People talk about the storm that's coming, a thousand lives through cinema's shelves/

Talk to strangers in hotel lobbies, get my leads through cinema's shelves/

People talk about the golden era, I saw it and nothing changed/

Late night thoughts like they're everybody's Gospel -

But I could tell you that from my sofa

Judging your steps to improve in vain

I need time

Give me time before the genius strikes

There was a man who drew broad, hidden truths with his pen, they said

The work/words more lucid than they were to himself

But when he got what he wanted it was what he once wanted/

Elevated ruminations, when everybody goes down/

And at the party, when the band kept playing, they never asked me to play their game

A thousand pages in the book you'll never know now

I never even found out his name

I need time

Give me tiiiiiime

Before I

I think we might need to make some corrections

Rationalising fears as misdirection/Living out fantasies by self-rejection

You'll find me on the couch, spinning webs of accumulated lies

Fantasies that leave me unsatisfied

Remember when's the lowest form of conversation

Remember when gets you to a lot of places

Fantasies that leave me unsatisfied

No today, but tomorrow is all miiiiine

Another burnt out for the niiiight

Drawing broad strokes of accumulated liiiies

Fantastic that leave me unsatisfied
