Good Kid - Nomu Lyrics

Four eyes entwined, draw four separate lines
And none of them point to you
A tangled mess of knots, I confess
But the intent was there, I swear
We set our sights on something that we thought was true

So now we sit and stare across
A surface spanning the whole state
Two feet between and miles apart
No words to speak, been here a week
And still, we haven't got a clue

It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
(The animal instinct, fluttering away from the start)
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have

Each word a world all of its own
Each thought rendered only in groans
The syntax skips, semantics slips
And what we're left, a growing cleft
Of language lost, tokens unknown
And then I guess we slipped right through
And lost all meaning on the way
We ended up a tiny piece
Of every heart, of every part
Of every stone, of every grave

It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
(The animal instinct, fluttering away from the start)
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have

A tangled mess of knots, I confess
But the intent was there, I swear
We set our sights on something that we thought was true

It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
And it falls apart if there's not a heart to have
(The animal instinct fluttering away from the start)
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
If there's not a heart to have

(We ended up a tiny piece)
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
It falls apart, there's not a heart to beat there
It falls apart if there's not a heart to have
