Van Occupanther Lyrics - The Trials Of Van Occupanther - Midlake

I must be careful now in my steps 

Years of calculations and the stress 

My science is waiting, nearly complete 

One glass will last for nearly a week 

Let me not get down if I'm walking with no one 

And if I stumble from exhaustion 

These buckets are heavy, I've filled them with water 

I could ask these people, but I shouldn't bother 

Oh no, I've stumbled, was I going too fast? 

Some get angry and some of them laugh 

They told me I wouldn't, but I found an answer 

I'm Van Occupanther, I'm Van Occupanther 

[Chorus x2:] 

Let me not be too consumed with this world 

Sometimes I want to go home 

And stay out of sight for a long time
