Ticker Tape (feat. Carly Simon & Kali Uchis)

Lyrics

Is it resolution?
 Or black and white flying balloons?
 Floating off, too colourful
 
 Or is it separation
 You put it to your counting sand
 Waiting for the world to start again?
 Ticker tape
 ♪
 Ticker tape
 ♪
 Tick-tick-ticker tape
 ♪
 Is this how you're feeling?
 Falling with the world tonight
 Cauterized and beautiful
 Slide the light
 Is this how you're healing?
 Out there in the paradigm
 Waiting for a cavalcade to come again
 Ticker tape
 ♪
 Ticker tape
 Tick-tick-ticker tape
 ♪
 Ticker tape
 Black light glints with colour
 Sudden long and horizontal outlines the star
 A sudden draft and quick chill
 A single snowflake falls
 And that is all
 That is all
 The world's face hidden under falling wind
 ♪
 Waiting for the world to start again
 Waiting for the world to start again
 Waiting for the world to start again
 Waiting for the world... again
 'Cause we're working through it
 (Are you leaving for the rest of it?)
 Working through your nightmare
 Watch the worker bees
 As they're working for it
 Working through the night shift
 And I'm working through it
 Working through the nightmare
 (Coming back to ghosts inside)
 Watch the worker bees
 As they're working for it
 Working through the night shift
 (Or is it just too late for that?)
 'Cause we're working through it
 Working through your nightmare
 Watch the worker bees
 As they're working for it
 Working through the night shift
 And I'm working through it
 Working through the nightmare
 (And I'm hoping for a little juice)
 Watch the worker bees
 As they're working for it
 Working through the night shift
 
 Is it resolution?
 Or black and white flying balloons?
 Floating off, too colourful
 
 Or is it separation
 You put it to your counting sand
 Waiting for the world to start again?
