I Can't See The Sun

I can’t see the sun, my limbs they weigh a tonne , I can’t even see the sun
I'm going backwards in a straight line,
With my eyes closed it could take time,
It could take time, it’s been a late night.
back to matter at hand,
I’ve been struggling to find a bag of sand,
bag of sand, ain’t no help ain’t no helping hands, helping hands I’m just I can’t .
I can’t see the sun, my limbs they weigh a tonne, just another day done
I can’t see the sun, my limbs they weigh a tonne, just another day done
See wee move in this together, it’s always better when the weather’s right.
See we move in this together, it’s always better
when the weathers’ better.
I took a long trip down, cause I couldn’t find the right light, couldn’t see the sun, I couldn’t see the sun.
I can’t feel the sun, my limbs they weigh a…
I can’t even see the sun.
Don’t run,
Don’t run take the credit,
sometimes it feels hellish but
I can’t see the sun (she’s by my side),
my limbs they weigh a tonne (takes a stride, takes it light),
just another day done (she’s my only bit of light cause)
I can’t see the sun, my limbs they weigh a tonne, just another day done

Death By Entertainment

Death from entertainment
its so easy it’s so pleasing
Now were grieving,
Past the screen you couldn’t take it
You couldn’t face it
There’s no fabricating.
Death from entertainment
Left me bleeding left me pleading
Now we’re grieving
You couldn’t make this up
They tried shake to shake me up.
Woke up just to wake up again
Im burning out,
still play the game
No rest for the inpatient
Easily destroyed easily employed
how were you built in the first place
No rest for the complaining
Easily destroyed east to exploit
my health
To Gone shit
Down the drain
It starts to sink
Ok don’t want to decay
even just a little bit
even just a little bit now
even just a little bit.
Woke up just to wake up again
Im burning out,
still play the game

Sometimes I, strike myself as a fool
and when the line rings, do I even deserve your calls.
you’re still here now, still down, down for the cause
down for the cause, and we can both
we can both, see it through till it falls
So we can both stay afloat
At times I, I can make it difficult
but you're still here through it all
the airs’ clear now
so will it be enough, enough to get me through the fall
get me through the fall
and if so, then we can both
And we can both x3
So we can both stay afloat
So we can both stay afloat
So we can both stay afloat

I walked the curbs and nearly lost my step,
In front of me, couldn’t see or retrieve,
what was next what was left,
couldn’t believe.

Gone West
02:58
|

|
I've gone west and I wasn’t expecting
anything else
And my mind scatters round, protecting my health
Self absorbed lately, I only care for myself.
Down in the town, in the crowd I’m restless
Eyes down and I’m bound, to a frown I’m tested
Eyes down and I’m bound, to a frown I’m restless
Feeling like I’m less than,
I’ve gone west and I wasn’t expecting
Tell me is it worth I can’t feel it is it working?
Is it even helping, what’s the point in looking
My heads stressed cause I wasn’t respecting
anyone else.
Took some time for my pride to bury itself
self absorbed lately, I only care for myself.
I’m unaware of myself.
Down in the town, in the crowd I’m restless
Eyes down and I’m bound, to a frown I’m tested
Eyes down and I’m bound, to a frown I’m restless
Feeling like I’m less than,
I’ve gone west and I wasn’t expecting.

Tunnel Vision

Tunnel vision through my television, I never listen, always missing,
never listen to the words…
My eyes glazed over as I sat by my
(Television)
lost a few lives over and over as I stared at the
(Television)
the movie scenes left to repeat so incomplete
as I stared at the (television)
She spoke to me, but the words went over
as she sat by the (television)
It’s best that you repeat
It’s best that I just
Never listen, to the words that they tried to say
Always missing, never listen to the words that they tried to say x2
Tunnel vision through my television, I never listen, always missing,
never listen to a word that they try to say
Survived the commute
Lost my mind to the news
The headlines left me blue
Obsessed with the repetition
Never listen, to the words that they tried to say
Always missing, never listen to the words that they tried to say x2

City Sleeps
02:46
|

|
The city sleeps, the city sleeps
the city weeps.
The city falls to its knees the city’s
incomplete.
And it goes on, on rewind and repeat,
on rewind and repeat
City rains, city shines
I don’t worry bout
What goes in all the time
I’m just getting mine, when funds deplete
I’ll have to vacate from from the scene
life’s stuck on repeat, the city falls to its knees
it’s far from neighbourly.
I walk the above, the ashy clouds,
they lean into the rye.
The city sleeps
The city weeps
The city falls to its knees
The city’s incomplete
And it goes on, on rewind and repeat

When you’re not the same as you were before
When The Body hits the floor
It’s harder to absorb
Even when
Frustrations breathe
It’s get harder to absorb
it’s harder to ignore
When my minds at
When everybody wants a call
Can’t be asked to pick up the phone
So I’ve seen it’s a little steep
But It’s clear I’m not alone
at the top of queens road
Even when, even when
the hours seem to crumble and dissolve
And the night leaves a trail
It’s hard to keep up and go x12

Cornering Lights
03:54

Cutting corners to the path,
Was the start of the of the problem
Start of the problem
We were splitting ways past the grass
Shoes torn apart,
It’s a high price
when there’s no other options
no other options.
And she says, the depths of your past,
Have had a grasp
You need to sever it
I just laugh,
Cause I’m not stopping.
Cause the when the taxi dawns at dawn
I’ll be back to my door I’m sure,
for the seventh time
for the seventh time
Cutting corners in the dark, won’t get you far
don’t have a laugh.
It’s doesn’t work very often
And when I get to bed
I’ll pretend, like everybody else is irrelevant
Yeah uh yeah
Cause it’s just another night x 4
engaged in the pursuit, put my conscience in the boot
Cause the when the taxi dawns at dawn.
I’ll be back to my door I’m sure x6

A Light for Attracting Attention
by The Smile
supported by 17 fans who also own “Evenfall”
The freedom of sound and songwriting, detached from radiohead and listeners' expectations that haunt the band, really shines here. Technical and super interesting instrumentation plus a more intimate soundscape makes this one of the strongest projects from Thom Yorke (and of course Greenwood and Skinner) imo.
