about

It's about yr boss.

lyrics

Sorry the big man keeps acting up. He sent me down to explain.
He's just stressed out--don't take it personal.
Sorry the big man keeps getting meaner, asking you to clean golden bowls that aren't even dirty, laughing at you.
But everyone's struggling man, him included. Up in the stars it's the same.
The dark stress is in everyone

Everyone loosen up and get fucked up.
When you get out of the pit tonight, fill those big eyes with stars--
just don't ask me to pay you for it.

Don't envy me up here. I'm out of the pit more often,
but this is a small stage.
I met the big man once--wide eyes, I've never had eyes that wide.
Cherish this distance of yours. I wish my life was simple like yours.
I wanna be you, you wanna be me, we wanna be him.
Thirst sits deep in everyone. Dark thirst sings in everyone.

Loosen up--you look so solemn working with those hammers.
Everyone loosen up and get fucked up.
When you get home, promise me you'll fill up those big eyes with stars.
Fill them up, just don't ask me to pay you for it.
You wanna be me? Well I wanna be you, we wanna be him, I wanna be her, we wanna be me. Maybe we'll get there if we do some favours.

I'm swallowing light
for 25 friends.
When will it end?
I'm swallowing light
for 25 friends.
When will it end?
