lyrics

Killing Child at Zoo

Come, we’ll go anywhere you want
Out to Raglan or the zoo
Come, we’ll do anything you say
And I’ll be happy when you’ve run me ragged
And we’ll both sleep well tonight

See the sad polar bear waiting
For its fur to be restitched
See the beach buried in black sand
Feel the world slip out of reach at your feet
Falling from your fingertips

And all I promised
Just so many empty words that you’ll repeat
Now no one listens when you sleep
And all you wanted
I’ve wrapped up and clean forgotten all about
We’re in these cages until we die

And I picked mine
You had no choice, but I chose mine
You had no voice, drowned out by mine
We’re in these cages until we die
And I chose yours, and I made mine

Another excellent slice of jangle pop goodness from our neighbours across the ditch. The Shifting Sands alt-pop sound is invitingly luscious and texturally rich, consisting of superb fuzzed melodies that happily soothe and excite. Michael Reilly
