Lyrics of "Foals — Albatross"
You got an albatross around your neck, around your neck
You got a hundred broken lightbulbs above your head
They said that you had it coming but I wouldn't bet
You got a slowly ticking time bomb and then you see red Sunblind
Sunblind You got an albatross around your neck, around your neck
You got a pile of broken wishbones under your bed
And you got a hungry green-eyed monster that you keep fed
It keeps on coming over, it wants you dead Sunblind
Sunblind You burnt the lungs that your ancestors created
You sat by the banks of the river and you waited
Till time rolled back and the water had abated
You drank your share but you still could not be sated
Quicksands of the mind and the sinkholes you may find
When you look through the twisting of the vines
Twisting of the vines Time's now, comes round, it's etching at your bones
Chill wind comes round, it's blowing through your home
Quicksands of the mind and the sinkholes you may find
When you look through the twisting of the vines You burnt the lungs that your ancestors created
You sat by the banks of the river and you waited
Till time rolled back and the water had abated
You drank your share but you still could not be sated
You said you're scared of the clocks that keep ticking over
We'll find a way for a life that's worth living over
Again, again, again and again and again
