lyrics

Always at War
(Eliete Mejorado, Bruno Verner and Yoko Afi)

When did she start hearing less?
Muffled emotions
Spaced out
Ten Miles to go
And there is no conducting
This is the voice of my lungs
I hear my hair growing
Always at war

My hormones
An experimental orchestra
My ears are bleeding
That sound you hear is the sea
Always at war, always

Along the edge of the river
She will grow
Amplifying the ocean
She will glow
Four miles to go
Another land
Another float
Always at war

Under the same sun
Disconnected from the machine
Blurred, wasted, brown
With no feathers
When did she stat hearing less?

She cannot
They cannot
We cannot
Spaced out
Always at war
In the cut
In the break
Paper pilots
Hot flushes
Flashbacks

Music in my brain
Sleepless in the ocean
Vertigo in the supermarket
Revolution in the carpark
Turn off the machine
Turn off the machine

Gold of all times
Ghosts, ghosts
Washed out / dazed
Children playing by the power station
Yellow grass in the park
Perhaps she should write her own play
Fees like continuation
White dust
August
Almost September
She does not know what to wear
Ghosts of other times

When did she start hearing less?
Always at war
Ten miles to go
And there is no conducting
This is the voice of my lungs
I hear my hair growing
Always at war, always at war
When did she start hearing less?
A silent blow
