lyrics

Why would I need three more things
If you’re giving me an island
Cause I already have more than I need
Even when my hands are empty

I lost it halfway to the irony
When you desired me
I didn’t want to be
And now that it feels like a memory
I wasn’t hiding
I was just practicing smiling

I tried to be all that I could, yeah
I tried to be better than good
But somewhere you misunderstood, yeah
So now I am floating like island

If yesterday was different maybe
Would’ve changed your mind
But now I sleep alone
Tempting fate we hesitated
Couldn’t blame the blind
Nothing to wish upon

I wanted to change this shit right now babe
Pipe down crazy
Said you’re a nice clown
But real life will mow you down
Hands starting to shake
Drop the mic now wait
Might sound crazy
Feeling much closer
Now that I’m far away

City clocks go Iggy Pop
And the time slows like sticky watches
Finding flows as I sit on docks
Like Otis moans and no one watches
Not for clones and not for bots
This music grows out of cold ashes
Feel a change and it’s coming slow
Like stereo full of old molasses

Why would I need three more things
If you’re giving me an island
Cause I already have more than I need
Even when my hands are empty

I lost it halfway to the irony
When you desired me
I didn’t want to be
And now that it feels like a memory
I wasn’t hiding
I was just practicing smiling
