The Lighthouse Song

Josh Pyke

And I've been getting urges late at night To walk and walk for days and throughout lights Through people's houses, picking food from plates Through people's gardens, picking locks on gates So we are moving to a lighthouse, you and I While seas drown sailors, we'll be locked up safe and dry And though our doors may knock and rattle in the wind I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in And I've been leaving gifts out in the woods That someone might stumble upon and wonder at their origins I've been feeling like a fox with sad old eyes Whose skulk has all moved on to leave the dark and empty den behind So we are moving to a lighthouse, you and I While seas drown sailors, we'll be locked up safe and dry And though our doors may knock and rattle in the wind I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in I'll anull these little walls of attrition and these invocations That's seen me holding my camera out at arms length To self-document these new locations When I should be leaning against you Deciding on things to get done And you should be leaning on fountains And filling my space up and breathing the air from my lungs Na na na na So we are moving to a lighthouse, you and I While seas drown sailors, we'll be locked up safe and dry And we are moving to a lighthouse, you and I Our beams will burn the clouds to beacons in the sky And though our doors may knock and rattle in the wind The wind... I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in
