Gymnastics

from Houses by Natalie Evans

lyrics

wish i could throw myself high as you can throw a basketball into the sky. but that won't happen no. my muscles are too small. gymnastics comes so easy in a daydream. i throw imaginary limbs on my imaginary beam and nothing weighs a thing cause it's a daydream. i feel amazing, so youthful free and able. wish i could flip myself fast as you can flip a skateboard around your feet. but that won't happen no. i'm not fear free as i used to be. gymnastics come so easy in a daydream i throw imaginary limbs on my imaginary beam and nothing weighs a thing cause it's a daydream. i feel amazing, so youthful free and able (i've got a little bit overtired, i've got a little bit bored of adult life). but when i try in the real world i just land on my optimistic head.

I could play this EP for hours endlessly, a mathrock classic for a reason. it's pretty and wonderfully expressive, the horns add so much. I wish there was more losthuman113
