Inspired by our pre-music unsuccessful school sports day careers.
lyrics
No I never won an award
Not even for participation
I was so bad at sports
Everyone loves kick ball
Hell yeah
Just a white line in the grass
A boundary for my difference like the name of my Dad
I swear to God I don’t make the choice
Preserving my emotion in a menagerie of noise
A canvas laid out on the floor
Connect and I don’t think at all
I will push me further out the frame the gift is heaven sent
I guess I’m scared I might run dry
Stop channeling this holy force
Man if I’ll never understand
Some just never make a point
Yeah I hate disposable ideas
Money buys everything
But that won’t help the feeling I have failed
If no ones ever listening
I will push me further out the frame the gift is heaven sent
I sometimes pray to god that I was faking
A simple paint by colour and a reference
Or urinal frameless on the gallery floor
We are running out of time before I make it
I'm pinned to every hope that fate will save us
But I'll tear out my heart
Before we're falling apart for this
