i need sugar
i need a little water sugar
i get thoughts about you
the night wants me like a little lost child
locked in a safe place
looking out the window
the dark move fast past the window
the dark on the other side of the locked door

click

click
click

the thumbs on a tetris keyring
moving brilliant timing
you pick up the phone
and im imagining

click

tiny wires in her ears
sliding through the city
tiny wires in her ears
sliding through the city

it maybe better in the morning
it maybe better in the morning
(unidentifiable lyric)
talk to you
beneath the beaten city

click
you disconnect from me

click
when you go and take your sanctuary

take one breathe between us
they run borders between us
only these wires
dust between the wires and
green grass and
in the distance
im your tourist

it may be better in the morning
it may be better in the morning

moving in brilliant timing
moving in brilliant timing
moving in brilliant timing
moving in brilliant timing

speech:
yeah, i search for this bike
hanging round the same store
i hung out right there with him
unidentified speech (+ bird tweets)

well ive never fished here
ive caught boo-koo fish in revensburgh
i never did catch fish
beaucoup fish in revensburgh
in dixie ten a slam

unidentified speech

crazy though

click (need sugar)
click (sugar)
click (sugar)
click (sugar)

click (need sugar)
click (sugar)
click (sugar)
click (sugar)

and a little water
(mumbled lyrics) to end

click
it maybe better in the morning

click
click
click
it maybe better in the morning
