los campesinos! – we are beautiful, we are doomed (daytrotter session) lyrics

[verse 1: gareth]
by the light of the led display of a vcr recorder
you kiss my neck, i whisper in your ear, ”this is my downfall”
as you squint and you grimace
we both know your heart’s not in it
by the glow of a thousand fireflies in a travelodge ensuite
they think the future’s bright as halogen
we know it’s pretty bleak
and i am trying to be s+xy
biting at the air that falls in front of me

[verse 2: gareth]
your telegrams are more and more less detailed by the day
and all the characters are strangers
and the pubs havе different names
i tеll a joke i’d like to meet them
but they loathe me and i hate them back
absence makes the heart grow fonder
fondness makes the absence longer
length loses my interest, i’m a realist, i’m insatiable
swapped counting days until i fly with hours before your reply

[chorus: gareth & aleks]
you said he got his t++th fixed
i’m gonna break them
i’ve got a heart on fire
he said he’s got his sights set
on getting to ya
i’ve got a fist on fire
[bridge: gareth & aleks]
you feel terrified at the thought of being left behind
of losing everybody, the necessity of dying
oh, we kid ourselves there’s future in the f+cking
but there is no f+cking future
i’m just practicing my accents, picking at old sutures

[verse 3: gareth]
i taught myself the only way to vaguely get along in love
is to like the other slightly less than you get in return
i keep feeling like i’m being undercut
charlotte says, “it’s more constructive than the one in canada
where you got drunk, ate loads of crisps
and threw up by a football pitch”
i know it is, and really, that’s what worries me
i feel like i should hurt

[chorus: gareth & aleks]
you said he got his t++th fixed
i’m gonna break them
i’ve got a heart on fire
he said he’s got his sights set
on getting to ya
i’ve got a fist on fire

[bridge: gareth]
i cannot emphasise enough that my body
is a badly designed, poorly put+together vessel
harbouring these diminishing, so+called ‘vital organs’
i hope my heart goes first
i hope my heart goes first
[outro: gareth]
we are beautiful
we are doomed
