The Horrible Odyssey (feat. Miles Better) - Post Coal Prom Queen

It's heavy like a storm cloud overhead It's warm now, but it has to be said Every winter's feeling colder than last Could pretend to float over the past Summer's on blast And the damage ain't obvious as a cast Mental, drink to healthful plentiful ways Strange dazed in the longest day of the year Only time I'm full of cheers, is sincere Is when the solstice is here And the bad omens of the globe eroding And my social and personal capital groaning Can be capped & left on it's lonesome Off to chase blue skies With a pocket full of potent nothing Put an end to discussion On anything approaching substance I'm just tryna survive I'll make what the machine is wanting I'm eating time I'll buy what the machine is selling I'm eating life Expectancy is seen as messy That's Eton, right Aye, write on the edge of a knife Peddle desolate into the darkness To seek a wage Ask your local locksmith about race Rats pace in the kitchen We evade superstition Like new recruits evade fatal missions In a world that preys on your addictions Stomps your ambition Laughs at your afflictions And then asks you why you're distant They'll talk a power of your drinking Never of your drought You've got no pot to piss in But you're getting offered snout like Aye, I'll take it, light it up & inhale it I'll, screw up my, let's face it This world wisnae built for the sake of it Gotta take it how it is And stake your claim to it Just pray my family & friends are safe innit The closer you're standing to the fire Brighter eyes trained on flames The truth is not what you desire When blood runs warm Through your veins Crooks will demand a liar Tell stories glorifying the pain Of those in the darkness But our knives are sharpened And we're dancing for rain It's about balance? Do you say that in malice I'm convinced that Life is less of a challenge The higher up the pedal stool You're standing

When Mr. Brown said he felt good I tell you it's no lie I feel better than that (I feel better than that) When Johnny & The Silver Beatles Had your volume high I feel better than that Maybe it's the time or place, Or maybe it's your stupid face That's turning me on Maybe it's the crowded room Or maybe it's the bass drum boom That's kicking this song I feel better than that (I feel better than that) The first time that you saw Bardot Inside you really glow But I feel better than that (I feel better than that) You had a crush on Brando And you tingle down below But I feel better than that Maybe it's the strobing lights Or maybe it's the music That is turning me on Maybe it's your go-go hair Or maybe it's the cracking snare That's hitting this song I feel better than that (I feel better than that) One four letter word is the sole reason why Let me spell it out for you L-O-V-E, I'm talking about love Take a locomotive, with it's head all full of steam I feel better than that (I feel better than that) Like a Saturn C5 rocket with a roller coaster scream I feel better than that Maybe it's the time or place, Or maybe it's your stupid face That's turning me on Maybe it's the crowded room Or maybe it's the bass drum boom That's kicking this song I feel better than that (I feel better than that) I feel better than that I feel better than that (I feel better than that) I feel better than that

Look to the stars Beyond the mountains and the wild sea Follow your dreams The bravest hearts The gods will favor those who dare to see Courageously For destiny Beautiful Island Bathed in the rising sun Faith's hand will guide you Travel in path alone Back to the warmth of home Through storms we'll rise And battles fought under a raging sky Through watchful eyes Fearless we breathe With silent whispers through the ancient trees Where legends grow We live in whole Beautiful Island Bathed in the rising sun Faith's hand will guide you Travel in path alone Back to the warmth of home

Suddenly Suddenly we find ourselves in spotlight Illuminate Illuminated in the dark forest Rabbit in the headlights Of monstrous machines Like submarines But made of teeth Really I find it kind of funny The systems that we live in Are alien to me anyway Suddenly Suddenly we find ourselves in spotlight Rabbit in the headlights Of monstrous machines Like submarines With smiling teeth Really I find it kind of funny The systems that we live in Are alien to me

Hey, I wanna meet somebody Howl in the night For the time I've wasted Trying to find you around Down in the sky Breaking down For all the times I ever thought about you

That look on his face drops the pace like a smoking gun And when I look what I see is a million dollar hitman in my mansion You'll lose control just by a mention of his name Forget the cops, don't call his bluff just when you see him Tell him what you've seen's enough Behind the scenes they call him Prom Queen As cold as ice, he is the Prom Queen, yeah And if you play your cards he'll take you to his place Don't get excited though, he's like a domino "No poison in your drink", don't take his word for it And if you look right at him, be the first to run Sleeve full of aces "Drop the pace", said the Queen to the King He's poison, don't take his word for it And if you look right at him, be the first to run Sleeve full of aces, drops the pace Forget the cops, don't call his bluff just when you see him Tell him what you've seen's enough Behind the scenes they call him "Prom Queen" As cold as ice, he is the Prom Queen, yeah Don't take my word for it baby Don't take my word for it baby It wouldn't hurt if you'd trust me Just take my word for it... baby
