about

This song is a metaphor for anxiety using the themes of Luis Buñuel’s film "the exterminating angel"

lyrics

That nobody loves me shit
just gets old
Every talk is five stories,
that are just retold
By the chair by the window
By the bags and the gowns
She’s talking down to me
And I’m talking her down.

Stuck at self service island
Lost in Rome
Waiting at purgatory til the
Ship ride home
Turn out the streetlights
Drift into my room
A goodbye from sweetheart
and a kiss from the moon

I’m Bunuel’s angel
Cant find a reason to go
I’m perfectly able
Yet unable so.

(instrumental)

I’m Bunuel’s angel
Cant find a reason to go
I’m perfectly able
Yet unable so.

I’m Bunuel’s angel
Cant find a reason to go
I’m perfectly able
Yet unable so.
