lyrics

Put me under these spotlights
And grill me like your name's George Foreman
Waving wonder make me water
When you thrill me with your sweet performance

I finally surrender
As the sky melts into sea, melts into lake, melts into me
I know I won't remember
The specifics, but the specifics remember me

Leave me formless, flow like water
Into brothers, into sisters, sons and daughters
Waving wonder I so wanted
Keeps on dancing in your sweet performance

I finally surrender,
As the sky melts into sea, melts into lake, melts into me
I know I won't remember
The specifics, but the specifics remember me

Well I can't foresee it
But I feel I'm heading south
And I know I'm needed
Like a bullet in the mouth

Well I can't foresee it
But I feel I'm heading south
And I know I'm needed
Like a bullet in the mouth

Oh familiar
Thoughts that bump like billiards
I'm mesmerised by billboards
I know you're living in me everyday

Well I can't foresee it
But I feel I'm heading south
And I know I'm needed
Like a bullet in the mouth
