Chasing my tail Running around in squares Utopia’s the goal Though I suspect we won’t get there But I wanna get closer I wanna get closer to you Come a little closer And do the things we both want to Cause I know I’m safe From everything that puts me off Cause I know I’m safe From everything that makes me small When I’m closer to you When I’m closer to you My eyes wandered away But their feet are tired The sky was colored as day Though it’s only at night when I’m inspired So I wanna get closer I wanna get closer to you Come a little closer And do the things we both want to Cause I know I’m safe From everything that puts me off Cause I know I’m safe From everything that makes me small When I’m closer to you When I’m closer to you Do you feel this climate It’s telling me you’re so far away But I just keep on chasing So that we can live another day Do you feel this climate It’s telling me you’re so far away But I just keep on chasing So that we can live another day When I’m closer to you When I’m closer to you

It’s only time and space That can keep us away ‘Cause we transcend the laws We can walk through the bars That keep us apart The stars formed a single file The bridge that pulls us together Curved like your pretty smile There will be no such thing as bad weather I’m floating in space There is nobody else In my mind We have time They can’t trap my love in this jail cell It’s a paper cage So never let them win Please never surrender Hasta la victoria It's only time and space that can keep us apart Hasta la victoria It's only time and space that can keep us apart Hasta la victoria It's only time and space that can keep us apart Hasta la victoria It's only time and space that can keep us apart It’s only time and space That can keep us away ‘Cause we transcend the laws We can walk through the bars That keep us apart

Tripping over guilt that shouldn’t exist Did I do something wrong, was there something I missed Cause there were all those things I had thought you had promised But all of a sudden you decided to quit My hopes were up But my guard was down I didn’t know that treating me this way was allowed Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday When you wanted me to stay Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday Tell me what you want today A power imbalance I’m cursed by your charm Which is why I still forgive All the harm You’ve done to me My hopes were up But my guard was down I didn’t know that treating me this way was allowed Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday When you wanted me to stay Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday Tell me what you want today Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday When you wanted me to stay Tell me what you want today I’m sure it won’t be the same As what you told me yesterday Tell me what you want today

Paste me up against the wall Spray me through your stencils Write my name all over Maybe the price of this gentrifying town will go down I inhaled your art when it took my breath The spirit of revolution is now in my lungs Jumped off the train, you broke your legs They were chasin after you So you did what you had to Spilling colors out your bag Don’t let your mother find out That you Paste me up against the wall Spray me through your stencils Write my name all over Maybe the price of this gentrifying town will go down I inhaled your art when it took my breath The spirit of revolution is now in my lungs Snuck your way out to meet me In the middle of the night Walking through concrete Holding cans filled with light Spilling colours out your bag Don’t let your mother find out That you Paste me up against the wall Spray me through your stencils Write my name all over Maybe the price of this gentrifying town will go down I inhaled your art when it took my breath The spirit of revolution is now in my lungs Paste me up against the wall Spray me through your stencils Write my name all over Maybe the price of this gentrifying town will go down I inhaled your art when it took my breath The spirit of revolution is now in my lungs

Je le sens venir. Mon jour. Je sens sa présence comme une proie- j’attends. Lundi, mardi, dimanche, peu importe. Tu n’as jamais aimée les jours de la semaine. Tu me disait toujours que le temps n’est pas divisé en sept, ou en vingt-quatre, ou en douze. Le temps est une surface, comme tu disais, comme les autres, jamais séparé de l’espace, jamais aussi docile que l’on aimerait. Un jour, tu as vu notre place dans le monde comme si toi, tu t’en étais séparée. Ce n’était pas une vision, car nos cinq sens sont trop primitifs pour te comprendre, je pense, mais d’un coup tu savais- et tu ne devais pas me le dire, non plus, je l’ai vu dans tes yeux. Le temps. Tu m’as dit que tu t'étais sentie petite, comme un enfant qui essaie de voir au dessus de l’armoire, une telle lassitude que tu voulais en mourir, mais que tu étais dépourvue de sentiments depuis. Je ne comprenais pas pourquoi tu ne m’aimais plus, mais tu m’avais expliqué que, quand dix hommes se tiennent debout, l’un d’entre eux est toujours coupable de son crime, et que tu ne te lèverais pas. J’ai pris du temps à comprendre de quel crime tu parlais. Serait-il simplement de m’aimer, de te laisser emportée par une douceur trop humaine à ton goût? Je me le demandais, en te voyant glisser entre les écrans de ma vision. J’avais pensée que, face au vide, tu t’étais perdue, tu avais laissée la partie de toi qui me connaissait dans le coin d’une lacune comme offrande. Mais… tu n’as connue aucune abîme, car l’espace, le temps et leurs compagnons sont bien le contraire- tu as rencontré le tout, le congestionnement de l’univers que nous, les autres, n’avons jamais entériné. Toi, tu l’as consacré. Tu avais compris que tu avais rencontré l’infini, et qu’il t’a montré tout ce qu’il te manquait avant de te l’arracher. Le baiser entre le gouffre et le tout est bien mieux que les nôtres, et quand la septième dimension te caresse la nuque, un contact humain n’est que l’agent pathogène qui te retiens. C’est pour cela que je n’ai pas pleurée après que tu partes. Ils t’ont choisis, ils t’ont montrée que tu n’est qu’un cafard qui invente la roue et le vaccin dans un univers ou deux qui cherche beaucoup plus loin que le prix nobel. Aurais-tu été plus heureuse si tu serait morte dans un lit confortable d’ignorance et de prétention d’une banalité répugnante, comme nous? J’en ai aucune idée. Tu n’as pas eue cette chance, ce don de l’ignorance. Depuis toujours tu as sentie son appel, et tu l’as suivi jusqu’au jour où tu as sû. Je l’entends aussi. La cacophonie des étoiles me chuchote dans l’oreille gauche et m’offre de doux baisers sur une peau trop humaine, trop jeune pour le mériter. Ici, dans la petite bulle qu’on connaît, où les disputes de cafards dans une tour d’ivoire nous occupe, où on est assez petits pour penser que tout en dehors de nous est le vide, et nous, nous sommes le tout, j’attends. La caresse de l’univers sur mes lèvres me promet que je suis guettée, que tu me vois toujours. Si mes années de piété ignorante ne te repoussent pas, j’espère que tu seras là, que tu m’attendras de l’autre côté de l’infini.

The spirit and the four elements are on your side A talisman resting on your chest is where it will hide Your preceding ones were labeled heretics, a threat to primitive accumulation They were pressured to be baby makers, produce the workers for the nation But you don’t owe anything to those pricks We’ll fly away on our broom sticks It’s a feeling, it’s a feeling I can’t explain We are healing, we are healing from the pain It’s a feeling, it’s a feeling I can’t explain We are healing, we are healing from the pain It’s a feeling, it’s a feeling I can’t explain We are healing, we are healing from the pain The spirit and the four elements are on your side A talisman resting on your chest is where it will hide

Did I say all that I wanted to say I just remember looking the other way I was socialised to pick my fights But it’s hard to keep calm when you know what’s right If I name drop and call you out Will you ban me from crossing your borders The ones that you violently enforce Who is Visa, I’ve never heard of her before These embassies have no idea who I am I won’t even sound good on paper to them You spent hours searching for my bar code But I’m not a commodity, don’t you know? I guess I look different in your eyes But do you see any lines in the sky? If I name drop and call you out Will you ban me from crossing your borders The ones that you violently enforce Who is Visa, I’ve never heard of her before These embassies have no idea who I am I won’t even sound good on paper to them Ahhh Ahhh If I name drop and call you out Will you ban me from crossing your borders The ones that you violently enforce Who is Visa, I’ve never heard of her before These embassies have no idea who I am I won’t even sound good on paper to them I won’t even sound good on paper to them

How do you rebel when they can commodify your uprising If punk is just another CD how do you find it’s meaning No escape They’ll fly away to outer space While you’re stuck in the ruins Should I make it pretty Vacant Should I strip It of its meaning Words words words Should I push off the weight Should I package it in plastic Is it the only way Is it perverse For me to gain from the pain This is just a distraction I’m here to sedate you Seduce you Help you forget about the fire We’re all so tired I’m just the relief Should I make it pretty Vacant Should I strip It of its meaning Words words words Should I push off the weight Should I package it in plastic Is it the only way Is it perverse For me to gain from the pain Should I make it pretty Vacant Should I strip It of its meaning Words words words Should I push off the weight Should I package it in plastic Is it the only way Is it perverse For me to gain from the pain
