Walking through a haze, trading Dollars for Days Stains on my shirt but my mind’s not working Fooled me once, now I’m stuck in a maze I wanted more, but I’m tired of searching Kia ora, my name’s Dawn, and I’ve been screeching in my sleep, then wake to find the moments fly like birds upon the breeze. Too fast, the days are passing with increasing ease; I measure years in pairs of jeans and fear the marching of the seasons. I have tried to find a reason for accepted expectation; to way your worth on years of tedium and lost elation, That we should torch our taonga for ‘great’ ungrateful nations, but to teach our kids te Reo would take a toll on our taxation. It’s a dichotomy isn’t it? Capitalism has given me everything; bite it off all the way to the wrist, now I cannot eat. Time is restless, I’m lost in the game and it’s feeling conflicted, don’t run out the clock, take a shot and you miss it. The moments fly by as the world beneath dies, but I don’t want to scream if nobody’s listening.

My god it’s nice to meet you, You’re like something from a dream. Midnight conversations in your bed, mm, now I can’t shake the feeling. There’s gold on the water, Saline on the breeze. We’re quick enough to realise The gravity You got me feelin’ like the World’s OK, a brighter place, Less obsessed with the stress, and what I can’t change. I’d rather spend that time with some wine in the middle. You got me feelin’ like my heart’s on fire, Take me to the highest hill you’ve been to in this car. You said you’re gon’ catch me like the Fly and the Lizard, And you’re right, you are, you are. I thought I saw you yesterday But I was only dreaming. Tried to write you off my face, But I can’t shake the feeling. It’s cold under water, And it’s way above my head. You’re quick enough to chase away the demons in my bed You got me feelin’ like the World’s OK, a brighter place, Less obsessed with the stress, and what I can’t change. I’d rather spend that time with some wine in the middle. You got me feelin’ like my heart’s on fire, Take me to the highest hill you’ve been to in this car. You said you’re gon’ catch me like the Fly and the Lizard, And you’re right, you are, you are.

Running on a day's end Quarter past four thirty It’s time to fuck off early again Place it Where we don’t make money I bought the honey bourbon, babe So stop trying Leave your bags back there Bags back there ‘Cos the sun won’t set (babe) We can cruise out to the beach Moving to the beat Rolling down the streets like Rolling down the streets like Rolling down the streets like (yeah) Rolling down the streets Bonfire Burning in the red Cards in the deck, unbox it You’re higher Than I've ever seen And there’s a third spliff in my pocket Go light up Put your lighter in the air Lighter in the air ‘Till the sun don’t set (babe) Bury those keys (deep) I gotta feeling we’ll be Rolling down the streets like Rolling down the streets like Rolling down the streets like (yeah) Rolling down the streets

You said this would be a good time (you havin’ a good time tonight ladies and gentlemen?) I’m sure as hell feeling groovy (let me see your hands in the air!) Is it gon’ be like this all night? (We going all night long) Were these white walls always moving? (Get ‘em up!) Started off hating every party that I went to, then noticed over time that I would slowly change my mental Party beast inside me loosened up by the weekend, soon everyday I’m boozin’ up early in the evening Stern in the beginning when we had our personal battles, shots were fired off then vices became our medals (Mamma!) Everything illegal, I just want it in my system, but I was not the regal type yes I was lacking wisdom Molly, brandy, tequila, can’t forget cocaína, seeing them was bad enough, but worse that I got to meet cha Like mean girls from my high school, I always was the nice dude, later in life we hooked up, now I can’t live without you (girl!) High that I received cannot compete with anything, money can’t cut it definitely not a diamond ring I just want to wake and bake with no worries at all, lock me in a room with him and don’t bother to call. You said this would be a good time I’m sure as hell feeling groovy Is it gon’ be like this all night? Were these white walls always moving? Let me tell you all about the time that I went swimming mentally and spiritually, let’s start at the beginning I was two tabs deep on a beach in a country I was unfamiliar with, and I didn’t have no money (woops) Starin’ at the sky, are the whales? Are they clouds? Are they whales? Are they clouds? Am I saying this out loud? Then all of a sudden I’m speeding up and slowing down, and I turn around to find myself a mile out of town at a cross roads Lost though, I hear “you all good bro?” Yeah G, I’m chilling, just tripping fuckin’ balls though, where did all the walls go? And why is there a small fox chillin’ in my pocket, then I’m off like a rocket, ‘cos I know just who has lost it My boy back at home base, and he’ll be off his face, dancing round like swan lake It’s going great till I get back to the door, and I realise I’m locked out with nobody to call Sittin’ on the veranda, pebbles turning to pandas, senses deprivating more than I could ever imagine So stuck inside this time loop, the bro’s back to uncoop me, and all he’s got to say is “I’m sorry I took the room key” You said this would be a good time (I’m always down for a good time) I’m sure as hell feeling groovy (I’m always down for a good time) Is it gon’ be like this all night? (but it’s been like four hours, how long does this shit last?) Were these white walls always moving? (I’m always down for a good time)

There’s a tree in the yard Climb up here if you can, I’ll take you to another land Where birds wear bird clothes, And everybody knows where nowhere goes. Climb up here let’s take a walk Split decisions like a fork, come back to my palace The whole thing’s made of tin, And everybody knows what state you’re in. This never ends, did I fail to mention? You’re stuck here friend, in my dimension. This never ends, did I fail to mention? You’re stuck here friend, in my dimension.

You got the words on your lips, coloured like full moon rising Weight of the world on your hips, lit up my love like lightning Mmm and if I pick you up at one, was it fun? Were you having a good time? And if I think that you’re the one then I’ll ride around getting late I want you to say you love me You said, you say it every time you see me I just, I just want you to say you love me You said, you say it every time you see me Don’t pay a nickel to split, the tank is full I’m driving If they ain’t fussy they’ll fit, two in the trunk’s worth trying Mmm and if I pick you up at one, was it fun? Were you having a good time? And if I think that you’re the one then I’ll ride around getting late I want you to say you love me You said, you say it every time you see me I just, I just want you to say you love me You said, you say it every time you see me

Oo I thought the days were passing quick before, but this is madness I can’t remember well the last time that I passed out sober I’m talking over and over the most obsessive cravings and You’re at the centre of the snow globe We’re scared of riding solo, so our lighters pulse a low glow Unstable and entwined, you look amazing in this light

Well I’ve been bad, talking in my sleep Stressed out and rushing, lost and lazy But you’ve been great (woo), taking all my sheets I don’t want to see the signs, I just want to make you smile, I just want to make you smile but, I only love you when you’re high Nathalie I only love you when you’re high Nathalie You’ve been bad, pouring propane on my street Up in flames, cocaine crazy But I’m sorry baby, it’s not that I don’t want to try I don’t want to see the signs, I just want to make you smile I just want to make you smile but, I only love you when you’re high Nathalie I only love you when you’re high Nathalie I only love you when you’re high Nathalie I only love you when you’re high Nathalie Lips sugar sweet, on my head C’mon, how you gonna get there? Give to me the reasons I should change When it all comes crashing down When it all comes crashing down

Lately, I’ve been taking long walks around you Inside my head Later, I don’t want to know Where you come from, or where you go While I’m Falling asleep at the wheel Right where you left me Feeling unreal Keeps me awake Lately, I’ve been taking phone calls about you That boy was racing Faded, just another glow in the backseat Blank facing Falling asleep at the wheel Right where you left me Feeling unreal Keeps me awake Falling asleep at the wheel Right where you left me Feeling unreal Keeps me awake Man I’m falling asleep Falling asleep at the wheel Right where you left me Feeling unreal Keeps me awake Now I’m falling, falling asleep

Hey (Mmmmm) Waterfalling, I feel complacence sinking in Lungs are burning, try to replace what’s left of you I shut my eyes and fall asleep, I see you staring back at me But it’s just a pipedream, and it’s unlikely I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again She rolls one up to feel OK, I’ll pack it down and burn One more for the road and, that’s the last I saw of her Man all the colours start to fade, I think I lost my way But it’s just a pipedream, and it’s unlikely I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again I’ll see her light again
