As if Not Now

from Groundwork by Animal Byproducts

lyrics

I'd say the ideal gig
has a pit and has a podium
Not for their heirarchies
But for the ways that people feel

And if the stage is a space to explore yourself
Then the room can be a cage for those with impaired health

It's not embarrassing for you
It's embarrassing for them
As if improving society ever had a when
As if a lark never leapt from a single stem
As if a thrush never sang at 4am
As if not now it'll happen then

Often desire is turned passive
we consume before we eat
we rarely valourise when we could wish for a defeat
when I am moved to act
without noting my mind's beat
you can catch me on the bird app
I'll be sending,
no - reading,
no
scrolling
past
some

It's not embarrassing for you
It's embarrassing for them
As if improving society ever had a when
As if a lark never leapt from a single stem
As if a thrush never sang at 4am
As if not now it'll happen then
