serengeti - luke seymoup lyrics

i’m at a loss for direction
coffee shops are pretentious
and so are these inner city bars that don’t stage bands
trying to find some affection
i sound like charlton heston
after mixing poisons poured straight down the hatch
my body’s ready for the feds to come dissect me
when they’ve had their way
i hope i’m laid to rest
dressed in my dressing gown
i just want someone to hold me
because someone just told me
that the best bar in town is closing down

closing down

looking over my shoulder
as i strut through the cold of
summer nights in melbourne town with my phone switched off
all the buildings are closed up
tags on the walls as the doors are
boarded over and due to stay that way forever more
my body’s sweating
serengeti
feel so far away, don’t even recognise
the streets i’ve walked so much
sending postcards to strangers
dying for conversation
but this city’s had its mouth sewn shut and…
i don’t get paid to sing
but i’ll keep choking up
choking up a set
and in the face of things
i’m trying to sober up
sober up again
keep trying not to whinge
i’m sure they’ve heard enough
heard enough i’ve said
and in the face of things
i’m trying to sober up
sober up again

i’m at a loss for discretion
boiling right down to the essence
my vision starts to blur from all the drugs i didn’t take
my body’s sweating
serengeti
i feel a continent away from my local these days

i don’t get paid to sing
but i’ll keep choking up
choking up a set
and in the face of things
i’m trying to sober up
sober up again
keep trying not to whinge
i’m sure they’ve heard enough
heard enough i’ve said
and in the face of things
i’m trying to sober up
sober up again
