lyrics

All this shit is overpriced (I'm underwhelmed) I spent the last 16 years as a novice bard and never past beginners realm. I can't seem to beat the boss -Goliath- with my broken sling and i'm not doing anybody any good with anything. A bandage on my broken wing my broken heart can't seem to sing but rather in a monotone I ramble out some phony thing: I'm in the zone! and in this zone I am the king but all alone, a throne is just a chair and a chair is just a wooden thing.

I'm useless and fleeting, afraid of confrontation, i'm late for the meeting and slow to realization.

All this shit is getting old (or so i'm told) but it is only reaching for the moment like the model of a centerfold but i'm not trying to suggest that such a moments valueless, just wondering if such a thing will lead me to my happiness. and if it won't then why am i so highly strung? I am trying to relax but i've forgotten why it's done, i try to have a little fun - you know it never seems to last - cos i'm so inside my head and my head is so far up my arse.

I'm useless and fleeting, afraid of confrontation, i'm late for the meeting and slow to realization.

All this shit is intertwined so if i'm stuck the only way I will escape is concentrate and maybe some beginners luck. But I can't seem to stay employed, don't ask for my resume, all it says is I was paranoid but now I am ok and i'd have said it sooner but I wanted to appear as more than some jealous loser on his way to disappear - at times an overzealous boozer - at times i'm overcome with fear - attuned to absolutely nothin' and i'm feeling kinda weary

I'm useless and fleeting, afraid of confrontation, i'm late for the meeting.

TEACOZY recommends:

When The Tree Bears Fruit
by Parsnip

This album makes me think of riding my bike through the park in late spring. It also reminds me of being a kid and watching Playschool (and I mean this as a genuinely high compliment). Please listen! TEACOZY

Joy as an Act of Resistance.
by IDLES

This is easily one of my favourite albums, maybe ever. I don't know how they did it but there is something very powerful about its mix of vulnerability and force. Amazing album. TEACOZY

ULTRASOUND
by LoVision

This is my brothers band. I love this guy forever. He is truly one of a kind. His music to me is like a heart beat, a chainsaw, a spirit quest and waking up somewhere new. I highly recommend it! TEACOZY
