lyrics

Lately I've been taken
back to the attic
back to the attic
but I wake up in the basement
a thousand years old

My mind's been wandering
up to the attic
up to the attic
but my body's in the basement
like a mummy in a tomb

You like to say that you ain't afraid of nothing no
but when you cut
cut out the lights
that wild imagination goes runnin' away

Lately I've been wondering
if nobody sees me
if nobody sees me
then am I just another spirit roaming
hopelessly astray

Lately I've been visited
by my previous
previous version
as if some unfinished business
keeps him always coming back

I said I know what you know
I know where you go
you want me follow
but if I go up there with you
I might never be coming back

Don't make me go back to the attic

One of the most unsettling albums i have heard in a while. Chat Pile creates a grotesque blend of noise and groove that brings me back everytime. scarface6204
