Milk & Sticks - Boy & Bear

Born from a soldier’s arms

But our spirit keeps a-moving on

And one metre at a time we’ll fall

It’s a bloody hill in a broken war

We’ve been singing like a lunatic

And knee-deep in our milk and sticks

Just a kid with a broken arm

It’s a slingshot, a hail of harm

Ooh, I’m hungry for that feeling, honey

'Cause it’s moving faster than the speed of sound

I left you a lizard by the lake, my lover

It was so profound

While we found

While we found

Torn like a beaten man

It’s another dog in a foreign land

And keep on carrying a broken stone

And new tricks and a buried bone

We were born to be motivated

Cut off and cultivated

I promise you when the time does come

We’ll be down-river with a loaded gun

Ooh, I’m hungry for that feeling, honey

'Cause it’s moving faster than the speed of sound

I left you a lizard by the lake, my lover

It was so profound

While we found

While we found

While we found

While we found

Just like the rest

You’ll be coming back, you’ll be looking for paradise

For the silver line

That separates your body from your mind

What a mess we’re in…

There’s a monster in my head

There’s an animal screaming down upon my neck

Oh no, you better get up, my friend…

There’s a monster in my head

There’s an animal screaming down upon my neck

Oh no, you better get up, my friend…

While we found

While we found

Oh no, you better get up, my friend

Oh no, you better get up, my friend

Yeah

Oh, you know you better run, my friend
