Laser Beams - Wintersleep

One day laser beams will cure my sight

Negative five, it’s pretty much blind

I wanna see things you know

Stare so deep into the laptop light

Sip your coffee and stare

Like you got something to say

But you can’t say it 'cause it just ain’t there anymore

A vague premonition flexed in its might

Converse with absolute time and space

And time and space and time and space

And nothing really matters anymore

You can’t say it, don’t ever say it

It’s not tangible, it’s not even relevant

A warm hand, a short skirt

A soft blanket, a trusty appliance

A 57 in mathematics and science

An oxygen mask, they stick it and they’ll never come back

They’ll never come back

They’ll never come back, any more

Are you with me and am I wrong?

(I wrong?)

Your silly old songs

Do they mean anything or am I just wrong?

Am I just wrong?

Am I just wrong?

How did I ever get so goddamn dumb?

A foreign lick from a familiar tongue

It’s not one you love

But it’s familiar enough

Not full of teeth chewed up and spit on the ground

When I speak, are my words just white, naked sounds?

Carelessly rendered, and scattered around

Random, animal, clumsily stitched together

Forever alien and forever altered

Flowing in absolute time and space

And time and space and time and space

And nothing really matters anymore
