Lyrics Shonanoka - Her Space Holiday

Shonanoka

Say, say, say you’re gonna stay through the night
And keep me from the light
Cos it’s 3: 05
I gotta burn, burn, burn the selfish sound
Burn it to the ground
Like the flames licking at my hands
Let me make it, let me make it til tomorrow
Cos all I do is I choke when I swallow
These bigger pills with the sweet little bottle
Throw them back, back, back
Just like a certain sequence centred from the Bible
Being punished for dishing out the awful
The table’s turned now the plate is at my altar
Send it back, back, back
Two little kids who were bound by twine
She was 7 and he was 9
Took a long trip but chose the hardest way
Find each other when they’d both gone gray
When the morning fire comes ringing through the wires
I’ll sing it with a new voice
I know the words would be reflecting a switch in my direction
No more broken notes
I’m moving, I’m changing, I’m thinking, I’m groaning
I’m happy to report
Rewriting my history
Don’t worry, I’ll keep it short
But what we’re doing, what we’re doing to tomorrow
All we do is we take and we borrow
Digging deeper til the whole thing is hollow
Give it back, back, back
Just like a certain centred hero from the fable
He’s back to?
7 days later
But God has turned now his love is on the table
He’s fighting back, back, back
Now we’re all grown up and the friendship’s stayed
We both agree it was worth the wait
But we’re a little bit battered and a tiny bit bruised
With a good last sleep they’re as good as new
And in the end when you’re reaching your last breath
And there is nothing left to see and there is no one to impress
Where will I end up, with the last thought in your head
I know where I would I be and it’s fading for my family
So hold on
