Song | The Oil Slick |
Artist | Frightened Rabbit |
Album | Pedestrian Verse |
I went looking for a song for you | |
Something soft and patient to reflect its muse | |
I took a walk will all my brightest thoughts | |
But the weather soon turned and they all ran off | |
Took to the ocean, in a boat this time | |
Only an idiot would swim through the shit I write | |
How can I talk of light and warmth? | |
I’ve got a voice like a gutter in a toxic storm | |
All the dark words pouring from my throat | |
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we’ve grown | |
There goes a love song drifting out to sea | |
I'd sing along if I could here over the oil slick | |
So it came to pass and I came home | |
With four worn out limbs and not one love song | |
How predictable this is all you got | |
Yet another selfish signpost to my ruin of faults | |
All the dark words pouring from my throat | |
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we’ve grown | |
There goes a love song drifting out to sea | |
I’d sing along if I could hear | |
Over the dark words pissing from my throat | |
Sounds like an oil slick coating the wings we’ve grown | |
There goes a love song drifting out my reach | |
I’d sing along if I could see past the oil slick | |
The oil slock | |
The oil slock | |
The oil slock | |
There is light but there’s a tunnel to crawl through | |
There is love but its misery loves you | |
There’s still hope so I think we’ll be fine | |
In these disastrous times | |
Disastrous times | |
There is light but there’s a tunnel to crawl through | |
There is love but misery loves you | |
We’ve still got hope so I think we’ll be fine | |
In these disastrous times | |
Disastrous times |
I went looking for a song for you | |
Something soft and patient to reflect its muse | |
I took a walk will all my brightest thoughts | |
But the weather soon turned and they all ran off | |
Took to the ocean, in a boat this time | |
Only an idiot would swim through the shit I write | |
How can I talk of light and warmth? | |
I' ve got a voice like a gutter in a toxic storm | |
All the dark words pouring from my throat | |
Sound like an oil slick coating the wings we' ve grown | |
There goes a love song drifting out to sea | |
I' d sing along if I could here over the oil slick | |
So it came to pass and I came home | |
With four worn out limbs and not one love song | |
How predictable this is all you got | |
Yet another selfish signpost to my ruin of faults | |

The oil slock | |
The oil slock | |
There is light but there' s a tunnel to crawl through | |
There is love but its misery loves you | |
There' s still hope so I think we' ll be fine | |
In these disastrous times | |
Disastrous times | |
There is light but there' s a tunnel to crawl through | |
There is love but misery loves you | |
We' ve still got hope so I think we' ll be fine | |
In these disastrous times | |
