about

Dance tune, about luck..or err, something

lyrics

The coin is flipped in the air, you call it, it lands on the wrong side
You demand a recall, it’s messing with your halo
Catapulted air flow, a missile to the mind
Afraid of being left behind

Get lost in the turnstile, processed like a tomato
anywhere you go, you’re turning like a tornado
The ship breaks free from the line, the captain’s lost his compass
but the boat floats free just fine

Negative to the positive, smother the shit with gold
The boat gets lost in transit, but it bears a heavy load
That’s how the story’s told

Counting all the days until you feel in charge
You try to paint the world but it feels so large
Was I just getting lucky or was I in charge
Was I just getting lucky or was I in charge

You get four kings you win, you get five kings you lose
from the deck you never used, with the cards you always abused
because you never got to choose, always a force of gravity
So you choose to follow your muse

The flame has reached its zenith, the bomb’s waiting to explode
Annie’s finding the answers, but she bears a heavy load
And that’s how the story’s told
