spinifex gum - malungungu lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
running on empty
my wheel hand knuckle white
before the day finds an ending
i’m going out to the other side

red lights ringing out
the chain hands linking up
is that a voice on the steel tracks?
it’s like a scream and a whisper

[chorus]
better run, better hide, better leave it behind
better calm, better sleep, better keep me alive
better hold to myself, better go to the light
there’s a hole in the dark and it calls me tonight

[verse 2]
yes, iron on the iron tracks
carrying iron on its iron back
and when the snake eats its own tail
then dark comes through the cracks

and in the howl of the whisper
i hear the flying foam m-ssacre
and still the mines cutting deeper
out of time and now the signal’s out

[chorus]
better run, better hide, better leave it behind
better calm, better sleep, better keep me alive
better hold to myself, better go to the light
there’s a hole in the dark and it calls me tonight

[bridge]
am i a malungungu? am i a malungungu?
am i a malungungu? ooh ooh ooh oooh
am i a malungungu? am i a malungungu?
am i a malungungu? ooh ooh ooh oooh

mother, mother i don’t want to be alone
out here tonight. father
father i have followed you far as here
before the night’s done
i’ll be out on the other side

[verse 3]
on the news there’s a sacrifice
another fifo suicide
i see my eyes in the rear view mirror
and i don’t know if it’s me, you
or some other “i,” but they look and cry
where’s my life gone, where’s my life gone
where’s my life gone, where’s my life gone
where’s my life gone, gone?

[chorus]
better run, better hide, better leave it behind
better calm, better sleep, better keep me alive
better hold to myself, better go to the light
there’s a hole in the dark and it
calls me tonight…
