Lyrics
Take my eyes, take them aside
Take my face, and desecrate
My arms and legs, they get in the way
And take my hands, they'll understand
Take my heart, pull it apart
And take my brain, or what remains
And throw it all away
'Cause I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
Take my lungs, take them and run
Take my tongue, go have some fun
And take the ears, take them and disappear
Take my joints, take them for points
Take my teeth, tear through my cheeks
And take the nose, go and dispose
Oh, would you go dispose, just go dispose
'Cause I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
I've grown tired of this body
Fall apart without me body
Take my eyes, take them aside
Take my face and desecrate
Arms and legs get in the way
Bodies break
I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
I've grown tired of this body
Fall apart without me, body
I've grown tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy
Tired of this body
Fall apart without me
I'm tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy (take my eyes)
I'm tired of this body (take them aside, take my face)
Fall apart without me (and desecrate, arms and legs)
I'm tired of this body (get in the way, take my lungs)
I'm tired of this body (take them and run, take my tongue)
I'm tired of this body (go have some fun, and take the ears)
Cumbersome and heavy body (take them and disappear)
Heavy body, heavy body
Thanks so much, thanks again
It's nice here, I mean we're elevated
See out this big window, it's a nice day
It's a bit of a bummer we're sort of passing through Montreal tonight, and
I mean, we come here and we just wanna stay here
And this particular event is so brief
But on the one hand, y'know, we've never done anything like this before
And we haven't played in Montreal in a while, so it's nice to, nice to reunite
And it's nice to see ya, y'know where things are standing
And this is a really good feeling in the room
And uh, on the other hand, we're going to New York this evening
So, that's always a good time, that uh, that big apple
And uh, we're doing a residency in Brooklyn
So, if you guys know people out there, I'm sure you do, some of you
It's close by, right?
And uh, every Monday night for the next three Mondays
We're gonna be in Brooklyn, playing some music
But it is not about them, nor is it about the past
It is about this moment, so on that note
We will Segway into a song
A song about striving for a more simplistic path, I suppose
It's off our new record
Here we go
