Lyrics

Nine Eyes

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I took a strangely disembodied walk down memory lane

To the home of my late mother and my youth

Under the full glare of a hot LCD Sun

I rode nine eyed survivor Street View

Like the last of the liquidators before lights out

Or the first returned to Pripyat, my nine eyed scout

It wasn't at all distressing, just a wilderness

Something you can do while you are home alone in bed

Seems I'm all I need

I'm finally on my own

Yeah, I'm all I need

I'm finally on my own

And everything was just like I remembered it to be

Everything was like 25 years before me

I spied through all the windows, surveyed the lawns

But what kind of asshole drives this lime green Commodore?

He ain't got no right to be here

That's my name in the curb

My number on the letter box

My gold fishy being interred

I learned to ride my bike here

I learned the golden rule

But then forgot what it was, which suits me fine

I like things being elliptical

Yeah, I'm all I need I'm

Finally on my own

Yeah, I'm all I need I'm

Finally on my own

I took all that I wanted

When I was here before

But now I'm back to loot what's left

I can't get in the door

I guess I need to know

If I'll be safe here on my own

But who's this asshole living here now

Calling my house his home?

He's pleased like I'm the first by here

In years, or leaving last

Hidden under gums in his Gyprock dump

With his flat screen and my past

He laughs himself dry at me outside

With nine unsatisfied termites

I shut them all down and they go to ground

Then I shut down all the lights

Yeah, I'm all I need I'm

Finally on my own

Yeah, I'm all I need I'm

Finally on my own
