Working Lyrics

I don't mind working
I'd rather be on hills of sand
But then I would get thirsty to fill a need
I leave my friends
For always being the kind of man
I try and love those kinds of hands
And hope tonight stick to my plan
And never bleed for names I've ran

But if you tried to love a simple thing
Have you tried to love the simple thing
And try to grow
Sometime I get bigger
Sometime

dead on the threshold below to the garden in front of the rest of the city that ends at the banks of the river and stretches back to me and holds a square patch of back yard where i'm looking at

bunches of children (some things??) at their parents take colourful strings that cross branches of lemon

(i'm too tired to try and work out the rest.... would prefer to laugh at geo's face in that scene...classic.)

So beautiful. I think he definitely says "never bleed for names or brands." I love this album. If ac came out with another visual album id be incredibly psyched. Geo kills that part, man. Pretty intense expression haha.
