about

This track is an exploration of what we in Ireland call "The Fear"; a mixture of a depressive state from over indulgence & an uneasy state of mind.

lyrics

Sunday Shapes

I’m stark raving sane
Content is fair, fair is foul
These desolate eyes
Consistently sad oh what have I done

But I (move around) and I can’t (ever touch the ground)
Yeah I (move around) & I can’t (ever touch the ground)

Like a duck staring thunder down
So much wonder I think I’ll stay in bed
To find focus and peace
My god what re these shiny (shiny shiny) things?

But I (move around) and I can’t (ever touch the ground)
Yeah I (move around) & I can’t (ever touch the ground)

(ooh) Oh Sunday shapes & mental breaks be careful the void & precipice
Terrible cats and dirty rats this time is out of joint
Could I be that fantastic (Ahhh – psychopath)

Bring life to a stone
I grasp this moment of She-ra (She-ra She ra, She ra She ra)
I’ve got become my very own fairy god mum

But I (move around) and I can’t (ever touch the ground)
Yeah I (move around) & I can’t (ever touch the ground)

(ooh) Oh Sunday shapes & mental breaks be careful the void & precipice
Terrible cats and dirty rats this time is out of joint
Could I be that fantastic (Ahhh – psychopath)
