lyrics

You dreamt about the woodlands
You were hanging up your ghost
We sat and played prediction for a little while
Please excuse me if you feel, anything at all
'cause I'm a storm and I go "tra la la la la la la"
You miserable pricks
You can't feel the wind, but you see the trees sway
The places that we loved have crept the fuck away

You can't see the the wood, for the trees
And now the woodlands are gone but they're still part of me

I dreamt about the ocean, it was swinging a sword
And I remember back in school how they would lecture us that;
Building nuclear bombs, was par for the course
Back in school we learned nothing
Whilst bands like The Clash taught us everything!

We strung red wool through the woodlands
We were told that no-one goes there
But still we'd like to find those, parts we've left behind
Hidden in roots and branches, deep in the bows of solid oak

They said this town would creep away, now this town is vulgar

We rode bikes down to the train tracks
To collect our crooked coins back
And though we want for nothing
Disappointment comes in waves

Flattening cars and houses
Soaking us right to the bone
Soaking us right to the bone
Clambering roof and shingle, clutching everything we own
These bright lights lead us home
