Alcopop Records - Their Shining Path Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Backwards, blood words, bedlam and back
All the sigils we let stack
Dream coats, speedboats, manifest hopes
Make me something solid that floats

[Verse 2]
Tired and wild and all intertwined
There are so many ways to be kind
Flotsam, jetsam, stones thrown at night
All washes up with the tide

[Pre-Chorus]
So I wait and watch the ripples roll in
I'll take that bet
Never written a love song I didn't regret

[Chorus]
But I leave a believer! Star feature!
A real scene stealer! A splendor!
Undevastator! Shining ascender!
A real hum-dinger! (A god damn sign!)

[Verse 2]
The first man flew down, asked for a light (That's a sign!)
So I asked for enlightened advice
He said it's vaudeville, so make it mythical!
Flotsam, jetsam, secrets you hide
All washes up with the tide
[Bridge]
And the sign said "Hi, we're happy to help"
Next year just said "Here to help"
And the next year the sign disappeared

[Chorus]
So you help yrself! Star feature!
A real scene stealer! A splendor!
Undevastator! Shining ascender!
A real hum-dinger! (A god damn sign!)

[Post-Chorus]
So I wait and watch the ripples roll in
I'll take that bet
Never written a love song I didn't regret

[Outro]
He sits and blows his solemn smoke rings
Shakes his head and says:
"So you haven't really written a love song yet"
