Okay to Do This - Moonface, Spencer Krug

Do you remember when

The sound designers said to me

I just want to be

High all the time

And I said to them

I just want to be

Thinking how everything‘s perfectly wrong

While playing arpeggios ever so quietly

A couple boys with voices

Somewhere in the landscape

The pushcart poet gave them their choices

Politics or romance

Now everything is perfect

And everything is wrong

And everything’s apparently written in stone as they cry out like zombies

With their opposite answers

Do you remember when

We said «Maybe this is dead

This music we have made

This room that we have filled with beasts

Shouting at each other‘s faces»

Oh, fuck another word

Fuck another bluebird

Everything is perfectly wrong

Fuck another sacrificial song laid out like a snake getting eaten by

Our children in the sunset

Desperate sadness for no reason will overcome sometimes

When everything is perfect and

Everything is wrong

And then everything is coming up sunshine

You‘ll be fine

You‘ll be fine

Alongside the love of an actual life

Along for the ride of an actual lifetime

So please take me dancing in Mexico City

Where desperate sadness for no reason overcomes me

And everything is perfect and perfectly wrong

And then desperate sadness for no reason moves along

It is good to move on

Have many lives and

Shed your skin and

Sing

But I could use a spirit that just hangs out on my shoulder

Just to whisper in my ear that it’s okay to just get older

Yeah it’s okay to do this

Yeah it’s okay to do this

Yeah it’s okay to do this

This way
