Smoke in my eyes Pulled over For a glass and a plate and a smoke break You like half empty dives And I like Christmas in May And the lights went out And I could not see my own hands And the walls began to dance Worldender With a temper just as grim as you are tender Never close, I make the most of my own surrender Worldender Worldender Back to the van Rows and rows and rows of almond trees I clocked out for a minute Hands at six and three You thought we'd never make it To see our angel in silver lake But we did and we'll do it again Worldender With a temper just as grim as you are tender Never close, I make the most of my own surrender Worldender Worldender CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 00:13 Cover song 04:22 Interview 13:19 Original song
