my head is tired, my body's thin
do you want to know the state i'm in?
pull the blanket towards my chin
do you want to know the state i'm in?
2 sides telling us our lives are 2-sided and we must decide which one we're on, lest be divided ourselves, or else, or else,
or else!
i will admit, i am afraid of many things i cannot fix
giant conspiracies behind the door - been trying not to open it
this isn't how i thought it'd be when i was just a little girl, learning about how all the indians were never gonna win the war
now what is it you're fighting for? do you know who you're against?
do you think they're telling you the truth, now that you agree with it?
do you know what you're saying? they've been playing you just for playing the game
i looked inside the maker's mouth
do you want to know the things i found
he swallowed me then spit me out
do you want to know the things i found
2 tongues telling us our lives are 2-sided and we must decide which one we're on, lest be divided ourselves, or else, or else
or else!
Dearest Arooj, firstly thank you. My brother died this year n what can be said about such loss n sadness. I saw n heard you at The end of the Road in England. I spent many years in India n love all the music, poetry of your heritage. Thankyou Arooj❤️ ben1769
Sitting alone on a balcony in Australia, at night, listening to American Friend, good company indeed. Very tight rhythm section, smooth vocals, music that avoids categorising but with an indie edge. zaclang
