The Mechanist: Handlung (Stargazer)

(album: Exposition: The Five Before The Flames - 2013)

Walking the track the one I won't walk back
I'm gonna race it down the river
Where I'll find my shovel
It's getting hard to sit with strangers in a car
And they've strapped me in I can't get out

She's working hard
They stuff her entries full of lard
To maximise their profit margins, cut throat
Here comes her son
He's dressed like a pirate with a gun
And he's watching from a cabinet

Don't you sleep, don't you eat
Don't you weep, don't you reap

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Did you light up, light up
Because they couldn't find
What was wrong in your mind

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Where you feeling golden
Because you're not allowed
And now you're on the ground

Walking the track the one I won't walk back
I'm gonna race it down the river
Where I'll find my shovel
It's getting hard to sit with strangers in a car
And they've strapped me in I can't get out

And now she suffers at the hand of a fucker
Who says he loves her, cut throat
Here comes her son
He's dressed like a pirate with a gun
And he's watching from oh, watching from oh

Don't you sleep, don't you eat
Don't you weep, don't you reap

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Did you light up, light up
Because they couldn't find
What was wrong in your mind

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Where you feeling golden
Because you're not allowed
And now you're on the ground

Because they terrify me
They won't ever find me out here
You know they don't surprise me
And now they're boring me now they're here

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Did you light up, light up
Because they couldn't find
What was wrong in your mind

Ooh stargazer
Did you see the pills they gave you
Where you feeling golden
Because you're not allowed
And now you're on the ground

Stargazer
Don't you sleep, don't you eat
Stargazer
Don't you sleep, don't you eat
