Videotape Seascape Lyrics

Oh Townes Van Zandt haunts your headphones the
streetlights sway
You left your pregnant girlfriend in a train station in
Spain.
Parades burst from your brain, plaid haired girls call
your name
Fireflies weave resorts, built of light on perfect
shores,
Knife thrust, lust, angel dust, purple sky’s before
dusk
In the back of a pick up truck, racing from your shitty
luck,

Black water in a crystal skull
Drink deep and hallucinate an ancient ocean
Black water pouring out your mouth
Time travel to worlds composed of ice fields and sound

Oh Townes Van Zandt haunts your headphones the street
lights groan
That piece of shit left you at a train station all
alone,,
You steal somebody’s purse, ravens rip through your
skirt,
Babies in TV screens chase you out into the street,
Madrid’s finest hotel, whisky and painkillers. If stolen master cards could pay off all this shitty
luck

Black water in a crystal skull
Drink deep and hallucinate an ancient ocean
Black water pouring out your mouth
Time travel to worlds composed of ice fields and sound
When all your friends would call her they’d say it’s
for the best
You can’t force a man to love you. He’d be a shitty
dad.

They started the trip in the city of Cannes
They drank in streets under Cubist mansions
And when she told him that she was knocked up you
should have seen his face
And when she told him that she was knocked up you
should have seen his face

Black water in a crystal skull
Black water filling up your lungs
Black water in the south of France
Black water changing all your plans yeah
