about

New one-off single, released October 9.

Recorded in 2020 in a home office in west Auckland.

lyrics

wide awake with your thoughts
they won't leave you alone
you thought the booze would kill them
but it made them stronger

counting sheep in the dark
it's as pointless as wondering
where they all come from
is there an end to the herd?

it could happen to you, like it happened to me
it could come in the night, when you're asleep
and you would not know how you died

wide awake as the sun
says it's time to get up
don't say i didn't warn you
i do this every morning

suck it in to save face
no one thinks they are wake-deprived
i tried to warn you
but you didn't listen to me

it could happen to you, it could happen any day now
it could come in the night, when you're asleep
and you would not know how you died
