Track Name: Goth: I drew a picture of the flora and the fauna
the scene was blue, it made the news
he was an author
I felt so sick hearing the tremble in his daughter,
she wandered off into the moss
green like his jumper

You have no idea how often these things happen
I guess it's obvious, eventually it happens
you crush a bird between your hands to know its pain,
try to be kind with how you bury its remains

But when we collide with Andromeda
in 3.75 billion years
she'll be wide awake in another form
indifferent and unafraid that her body's gone

I stole a pen because it looked just like a finger,
from the receptionist in the emergency ward
I got a talking to, they said I should know better
we really gotta get a smarter way to teach these kids
the way things is BRRT

But when we collide with Andromeda
in 3.75 billion years
I'll be wide awake in another form
indifferent and unafraid that my body's gone
