Fingermouse

(album: Additional Futures - 2019)

Running will kill you but I won't
The girl with her top on back to front
She says the moon is a dream
That the planet forgot
Says it just want to be near you
And there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only only
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given

Some eyes are windows
Some are doors
One day I'll climb out of mine
And climb in through yours
Watch as they open and shut
As they lock up for the night
As they unlock in the morning
And there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only lonely
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given
And we are mapping the future
One foot in from of the other

You.you in every sunrise smile
You and all the shit you bring home
You don't need to know but
There's a golden bear
It's strong arms surrounding you
And I won't ever let go
All you need to know is
This will do
Yes this love will do

Cause there's a moon on my fingernail
Gather round
And no you can't blame the architects
Coloured sand
I know it's easier to shrug
Than understand
This is the only only only
Life that we're living
The only one that we're given
And we are mapping the future
One foot in from of the other
The only life that we're living
So clap your hands cause you're winning
Striding out into the future
Just say the word and I'll race you home
Just say it
Cause this will do
Yes this love will do
This love will do
