Valley Song

[Verse 1]
Wash your hands with water
Bruise your hands with ice
Lime juice in your micro-cuts
But it pays to be nice
Salt water gargle
You’ve been shouting again
Wake up as the sun sets
And sing through the phlegm

[Verse 2]
With a fake name and enough conviction
You can reinvent yourself to strangers at Ric’s
I poured my heart out to them
And it hurt so much less
To be Rina seeking thrills through extreme sports
Than Anika with complex post traumatic stress disorder

[Verse 3]
‘Tis the life to be hollow and numb
A hole in your wallet and smoke in your lungs
Earning too little spending too much
Buying flowers whеn you can’t afford the bus
When I dance I can’t feel my lеgs
Our cohort’s the coffee, we are the dregs
Working too much not sleeping enough
The sun might rise with some luck

[Pre-Chorus]
But really it’s something so divine
You me and this piss they call wine

[Chorus]
And for now I have everything, all I need
They’re rare, they’re special, your kisses are free
This economy of love, we’ve got monopoly
I’ll buy you food and next time you’ve got me
And for now I have everything, all I need
They’re rare, they’re special, they’re just for me
This economy of love, we’ve got monopoly
I’ll buy you baccy if you roll one for me

[Outro]
Let’s get the fuck out of here
My head, the car, the valley
Out of here
To your bed, the heater on, it never works
It brings us closer
