lyrics

I can’t remember if the image was ever very clear
Not all that shocking when it’s been dimming down for years
Five years now, well what a surprise
Now back to dive bars, and spilled pints of snakebite
Late night laments and staggering lows
Post-high

Who is she?
And where has she gone?
This daft ideal
I’ve been chasing after so long
Anna Karina, 1965
Was she ever real?
And is she even still alive?

Chasing after glimpses in a sun-sodden solitude
I call myself a flâneur, but I guess I’m just a pseud
A composite, seeds were sown years ago
By walks for miles, club corners old TV shows
I draw them out when I need them
On nights alone

(Chorus)

Maybe I constructed somebody that could never exist
Maybe I met them, I aimed and I fatally missed
This is the problem when you live life like celluloid
A disconnect develops, sync’d to the void
You end up Orson, both coveted
And best to avoid

(Chorus)
