Sugerloaf - The Lonely Forest

Why don’t you dance

When we sing these hymns?

«Cuz you sport the wrong pants

And attract the wrong kids»

Why should it fucking matter?

That’s not what music’s about

Before our first chord

Turn and raise your snout

When will we, when will we

Fly on golden wings to the far beyond?

I grew up in (I grew up in)

The shadow of (The shadow of)

A towering mountain (A towering mountain)

Raised on hipster love.

(Raised on hipster love)

When will they, when will we

Learn to kill the image?

Embrace the world?

Oh

I’m loosening

My grip on the fear of failure

And tightening my perception

Of what the world has needed

And «What?»

you ask, «Has the world needed?»

It’s love we say!

Yes, it’s love and not your image

Yes, it’s love and not your image

Yes, it’s love and not your image

Today I feel the guilt in my heart

It rattles my ribcage like a mule

You know the feeling you get when you’re tired

Of the person you’ve slowly become?

Mistake here, mistake there

Despite possible consequences

See, I’ve fucked it up over and over again

Oh God, don’t waste your time
