Ticker Tape Lyrics - Cocksure - Laura Stevenson

It's known 

Alight and overgrown 

But sturdy in its haunches 

Lines bowing forward from the shoulder 

Worn and molded-over 

Check throats are there to keep the moat 

From trembling through sills 

And your trench foot 

Looks like its bound to put you in the ground before your time 

I'm high and gone 

Young drunks are swimming in their work 

They think it'll be worth more 

Lay prone and pedaling your word 

It's next to nothing and you know 

Your god is a sentimental one 

If ever I had known one 

And I'll be always up in arms 

On that you can rely on 

I'm high and gone 

Make ticker-tape from my minor vita 

Come on and watch it fly 

Watch it 'til it's high and gone 

I'm high and gone 

Turn world it's over now 

Unfurl your fingers my engine's slowing down 

Unhitched from fixes last year the past year's undone
