Candy Pieces All Smeared Out is the third track on Visuals. The chorus was first released via the interactive Sensory Spaces app, and the song was originally intended to be recorded for +-, but ended up not being used. It was later completed and became a part of Visuals.
[Verse 1]
The sharpest I’ve ever been
In your arms
I’m trying to make you see
And talk about letting go of something
You’d trade it all for me
[Verse 2]
Undignified, don’t you think?
Just standing there
With nowhere else to go
You sprayed your hair, added hold
Stability, a scaffold for the soul
[Chorus]
The weather is better
Oh, we could ride there
Cruising on our bikes ‘til the sun comes up
We gotta be smarter
Oh, look at you, so careless on this road
Let your hands go free
[Verse 3]
The sharpest I’ve ever been
Is knowing the trouble that I’m in
And love is such a burden
A tiger balm to irritate the skin
[Bridge]
Oh, we could tell just looking at the top
Of your overcoat collar
Candy pieces all smeared out
Surely you see there are two versions of me
One googles itself
And the other one lives free
[Chorus]
The weather is better
Oh, we could ride there
Cruising on our bikes ‘til the sun comes up
We gotta be smarter
Oh, look at you, so careless on this road
Let your hands go free
