Six Distractions

by Adam Buckland Ensemble

/
1.
Usual fallout Burns in the third degree I can see myself falling rapidly Need a bailout Lost my frequency I can see myself rising less frequently Full of self-doubt Full of self-pity I can hear myself talking But it makes no sense to me Please don’t go out Though all fire has to breathe I can feel myself crying Please don’t go out Please don’t go out Please don’t go out Please
2.
Submachine sun, unite the clouds across the sky Submachine sun, hide your beauty from my eyes Submachine sun, there’s just too much life here for me Submachine sun, fire your rays - sunlight shooting spree Submachine sun, hide your beauty from my eyes Submachine sun, hide your beauty from my eyes Submachine sun, hide your beauty from my eyes Submachine sun, hide your beauty from my eyes

If you wanted someone to screw your life up I’m free I’m suffocating your breath, asphyxiation belief Ventolin girl Ventolin girl Impossible just to think when I’m sedated and still Tell you the way that I felt, but too much numbness to feel Ventolin girl Ventolin girl Inject me with sickness and I’ll come on to you Neglect me, erect me, I can barely move But I won’t hold my breath because I know it can’t be So, I’ll wait for an illness to come and smother me Ventolin girl Ventolin girl

Here From Me 03:58
It doesn’t really matter what I give to you You’ll take what you want to take from me Does it have to matter how I feel for you? Will you feel what you want to feel for me? I’ve no consistency I won’t feel it for long Yeah, so I feel for you No, I don’t hear from you Describe all the scenes from your memory My eyes can’t see Filter out the pain and misery Is that all we need? Seems that there’s no bearing on what I’ll show to you Reveal something of interest to me Your sympathy has gone Yeah, and I’ll fear for you No, I don’t hear from you Dislocate the dreams from their circuitry Can your eyes see? Filter out my thoughts and anxiety Is that all I need? Doesn’t really matter It doesn’t really matter what I sing to you You’ll hear what you want to hear from me

What Else? 00:50
Hey, I know every word I said was true So, fuck you Hey, I’ve looked at every book you’ve read So, fuck you Hey, I know everything there is - is there So, fuck it Hey, what else is there?
6.
I can make a home anywhere And everyone has their cross to bear I can construct a southern cross in any sky And if you were my cross I’d be gladly crucified I’d carry you anywhere you needed to go Take you nowhere you want Give you tastes of my schizophrenic heart Because there is nothing we cannot do I could experience the seven wonders I could have the Virgin Mary appear But none of this would be a token Unless you are near You know I do You know I will You know I love you still You know I have You know I’ll fall You know I love you all
