lyrics

Summer duvet time
Aestivation and re-navigation
Hanging in an agonisingly sweet limbo
Locked down but free as a bird

Just fairy lights and fantasies for company
and daily dances with strangers aroused by the fear porn

The breeze in the trees disagrees with what seizes us now
and Venus’ gaze seems abnormally bright somehow

Always something bigger going on
Lie under your summer duvet and look up
Just look up! Just look up!
Lie under your summer duvet and look up.

Summer duvet time
Slumbering under? Or wakefully watching the scene?
The lines between the lovers and the haters become blurred
A disconnect with what is seen and what is heard.

Fag butts in the chimnea remind that people been here
Don’t share my view? You can’t come near!
Divided up and sick with fear

The breeze in the trees disagrees with what seizes us now
Throw off your summer duvet and look up
Just look up! Just look up!
Throw off your summer duvet and look up.
