Love (Island) Song

The thing is, is                                                                     is 

I’m one of those people                        And kind of like 

You know what I mean?                                      So yeah 

You get where I’m coming from?                       I mean 

To me                                                                           To me 

A hundred percent 


Expressions barely sketches 

Barely strokes of meaning, seeming  

Something                                             I’m not gonna lie 

Obviously                                        At the end of the day 

I know where I am                                            Right now 

Right like                                                 I am and I’m not 

(Like) literally                                                      Absolutely 

A hundred per (like) 


They spatter, warding  

Off the silence, off the absence 

Of                                                                        Oh my god 

You know what?                                  I’m not gonna lie 

At the end of the (like)                    I know where I am 

That’s where my head’s at                              Obviously 

It’s (like) really (like) naturally              We just clicked 

At the end of the (like) 


Language, where the buckshot noises 

And misfiring mouthfuls of fuck all  

Explain                                                     I can’t complain 

And that                                                You know what I 

Yeah yeah yeah                                              Kind of like 

I feel like                                                How does it feel? 

The way I see it right    If I’m being (like) completely 

Honest 


The foam of language, flood-from, rich scum high inland 

The stretch of sand and lugworms in between 

And the shrinking smirking bloom on flatfar sands, thin 

Corruption, like the lackthick rainbow blushes 

Behind film lids in the peopled, peopled aisle  

Of fresh meat.
