about

This is a live demo. Imagination is needed to appreciate what this song could be at its full potential. A studio version is forthcoming.

lyrics

I say surprise
We’re cutting the ties
Like syrup from the sap of trees
I declare, this doesn’t make sense to me.

Can’t understand it.

Oh, it’s a magical journey now
We take the best parts of a cow
And we pickle them so they don’t sour
Then we devour.

Sweetness gathers flies
Snakes don’t blink their eyes
We do the opposite when we sleep
I declare this doesn’t make sense to me

Can’t understand it.

Oh it’s a magical flavour to taste
We take the best parts of this race
We tickle them until us they then face
Then we replace.

Can’t understand it
These remnants of reinvention.
