Mirage City Lyrics by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
There’s a place I wanna go
Cause my Mum and Pa, they fight at home
And though my feet may never grace the sand
It helps to give me hope
Where the waters froze superliminally
Where tachyons fly heavenly
Where Chang’e plays her silver strings
They call it M.C
What would it mean to be a beam travellin’ like lightning
Across cosmic ravine into
The city I have seen
Dazzling my eye, a skyline
But once there, out of line
To see that picture in my mind
And focus on the lens of time
Waves crashing down like a light [Lion Pride-full?]
Beyond the break, a heavenly haze shimmers in the ocean water
Fortune teller never predicted this reflection mirage
In the middle of ripples, I get along
Wanderin’ ’bout my Ma and Pa in the little town where I’m from
For me, I could swim or sail across
You, look near our city, where my [?] can sit by the Lord
I can’t wait to leave this Nightmare Behind
I see it so clearly now you’re Springtime [?]
Though I leave you with a message That I wrote, it says
Can a wick burn into my soul anymore, let’s change
So I follow the Crow
(Bird On the Road)
Drain the vein and feed the gull
(Chain to my throat)
I ain’t sufferin’ no more
But its just a mirage, in the wind
Disappearin’
(Guitar Solo)
Appearin’ behind my mirror, my face, locked up in chain
[?] sleeps thru all my dreams
Soon, in the City of [?] Skulls, with black shit on the back of the shelf
Don’t really want to see ya’ll dyin’ in the back[?]
A town where if I stay here, you won’t hear from me
Time for me to say goodbye to morons energy
