Andrew Davie in this Atwood interview
One of the issues I’ve been working on over the last couple of years in my personal life is that my mother is an alcoholic, and so I’ve been trying to help her for a long time and that’s been proving very, very difficult to reach her, and talk to her about that...
[Intro]
Out on Devoe and Humboldt
I escape myself
Been flying all night
A legend or a fool?
Can't I be both?
[Verse 1]
Your voice is breaking up
Manslaughter to the vibe
Think I hear what you're saying
Think I need a drink
Well I'm keeping it together but you don't know the half of it
It's starting to show
I'm not on top of this
[Chorus]
No, you can't run away from this hell you're in
There's no place you can go now and start again
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
As you wander around your apartment
You're wondering where your forevers went
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
[Verse 2]
Neither devout nor humble
Just a solipsistic kind
You're choking on a principle
But I don't share all you mythologise
Think I hear what you're saying
Think I need a drink
Yeah I'm keeping it together but you don't know the half of it
It's starting to show
No, I'm not on top of this
[Chorus]
No, you can't run away from this hell you're in
There's no place you can go now and start again
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
As you wander around your apartment
You're wondering where your forevers went
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
[Bridge]
So now you're cutting me loose?
All I am is all that I gave to you
Now you're hurtling towards that light
All I am is all that I gave to you
All that I gave to you
All that I gave to you
[Chorus]
No, you can't run away from this hell you're in
There's no place you can go now and start again
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
As you wander around your apartment
You're wondering where your forevers went
Hiding bottles in the cold blue light
