Exactly where we want to be. is a lovely romantic ballad, and is one of the more notoriously accessible Clk tracks. It puts up a front with a simple, warm melody and sweet/gentle vocals, but it’s revealed as the track goes on that something’s off.
The track falls into discordance at the end, and th...
You should have been a lovely memory
You should have been an opportunity that slipped
Slowly through my fingers
Withholding a world that wasn't meant for me
Watching from above as I rolled over where the darkness lingers
Somehow I have been mistaken once again
And I have to face the possibility that the end of the world
Is really gonna happen but I'm only human
Hell is freezing over as you hold my hand
Pigs are flying as you're touching my penis and pulling your hair Out, worried how
The trajectory of planet Venus is retrograde for one more week
And with bills unpaid, eviction's coming as we speak
But still the lights don't fade
And it incites this jaded, entangled braid
Of what is and what we seek
We're exactly where we wanna be, well give or take a tweak or two
I'll tell the slumlord give us a break and like a week or two
Or whatever I mean
If you can manage to sneak a few extra scones
From out the bakery, then that and some avocados will do
Just to make it last like beans and rice, but only tastier
At the supermarket, someone odd is gracing each and every cover
Of the magazines, of course I didn't vote
'Cuz whomever we throw in the water is gonna float
And I start to feel like there's a frog in my throat
That's making all my words harmful, like that time
When I was younger
The oldest goat on the farm started speaking English reversed in like
A real deep voice, and it said
Devyn rejoice! For we're in the Age of Aquarius
A fact that's been attributed variously to astrologers
Sleepless scholars and-
Ribbit!
'Cuz then it turned into a bullfrog
And so I kissed it
Whatever happened after that I must have missed
But ever since then, yeah
I've felt a little twisted in my head
But you insisted that we keep on dancing
I should take a second to quit with the theatrics and tell you something important
Love is all you need
And it's worth it to pick your scabs
And to bleed from self-inflicted wounds
If it'll loosen the grip of the greed that seems
So inherent to this ephemeral, material
Fleshy mass that of it's own reflection is awfully fearful
Increasingly filled with intuitive recognition
Of it's limitless power
Before the dawn, the darkest hour
Or maybe I should just speak for my self
Shit I never noticed all these books upon your shelf!
Ecofeminism, shamanism and paganism
The Spanish revolution, quantum theory and long division and
Who the hell is Annie Dillard?
The Devil's Book of Culture
Looks weirdly resonant but yet I'm not so sure
Of anything these days
There's a pure mathematics in the waltz between the ultraviolet rays
And the long black hair that stays
Tickling my neck and face as I lay within your
Shade of many greys and
An infinity of darkness resting under me
I must admit that I'm exactly where I want to be
We're always exactly where we want to be
We're always exactly where we want to be
