lyrics

Negative Figures

My collection of shit guitars want to know if you'll be home soon
Me and them and the gibbous moon, me and them and the gibbous moon

This broken watch is right twice a day and that's about two times more than me
I'm just seeking my right of way, ever seeking my right of way

Uh oh. I'm in negative figures. Uh oh, negative figures.

Alcoholics and ne'er-do-wells hover over the bridge in Kells
Knelt in prayer as a breaker swells, a floating palace of Speak and Spells

And giant moths on a canopy, the pixel wolf speaking tongues to me
I'm forever behold to thee, ever ever behold to thee

Uh oh. I'm in negative figures. Uh oh, negative figures.

Red is rising above the east and something tells me I'll be the beast
At your ritual pagan feast - well I'm a part of the scene at least

This broken watch is right twice a day and that's about two times more than me
I'm just seeking my right of way, ever seeking my right of way

Alcoholics and ne'er-do-wells hover over the bridge in Kells
Knelt in prayer as the breaker swells, a floating palace of Speak and Spells

The queen is riding across the sea while I’m here, buried in VSTs
I'm forever behold to thee, ever ever behold to thee

And my collection of shit guitars want to know if you'll be home soon
Me and them and the gibbous moon
