lyrics

Bingo hall is empty, fair today
Bath St, Fishwives' Causeway, Esplanade
Winter morning, sunny day
Summer calling, us away

People talkin' at me, what they say
Matters nothing to me, wish they'd lay
Bare their meaning, honestly
How they're filling, empty space

Living unreliably, give in to the anxiety
A different fate to any one you ever cared for
Shackled to a vanity, an image that they had of me
Feels like everyone that I love goes down a sinkhole
There's some I don't speak to no more
It's not out of choice, I swear, it's down to circumstance
Stumble over as I'm nearing the shore
It's like the hand that I'm grabbing for lands in a
Different palm, at a stranger's door

You take your mass at midnight, you kneel to pray
You pick whichever nightlight illuminates
Underwhelming, and overpaid
There's trouble brewing, I see it's face

The promise of the city is unfulfilled
The water tastes like envy, the salt like silt
Loveless endings, self-worth parade
We love pretending we got it made

Trying to make an honest living
To cure a sickness called the human condition
Paint yourself in chainmail, perform an exorcism
This is a modern exorcism
