Grimes – Circumambient Lyrics 9 years ago
This is what I hear:

Ob baby I can't say
That everything is okay
Cause I have a problem
And I don't know how to stop them
But baby I can't do
Anything to help you
Cause I'm working to the bone
And you know it's circumambient

Hey I'm ready to say
I'm working to the bone all day
I'm ready... to go... have fun...
I'm ready now... let's go... it's time.

Ob baby I can't say
That everything is okay
Cause I have a problem
And I don't know how to stop them
But baby I can't do
Anything to help you
Cause I'm working to the bone
And you know, and you know you're gonna have a bad bone.

It's really hard to make out, but once you try to sort through all that delay, that's roughly what you'll hear.

Nick Drake – Things Behind the Sun Lyrics 14 years ago
I think it's about being yourself and not living life on anyone else's terms but your own.

If people think you're stupid or wrong for doing what you think is right for you, then ignore them.

If you try to visualize it, the protagonist of the song is halfway between the sky and the ground. All the people on the ground are trying to change him- wrap him up and transform him into just another product of society. Winning the earth (or trying to please all those who are trying to change him) isn't worth his time. He wants to escape all that and take to the sky.
