lyrics

Marsh a raft of memory
On the lake of flooded young
Put my cheek to the hot concrete
Sinkhole black suburban sun

I didn’t think I’d make it
Back to the harbour’s frown
Or that I’d ever want to
Become the tide stealing out

[Still the water highway hum
Silt the mud this sinking feeling]

Did you have to hide that quiet
Hide that crime?
Why do I get this feeling?
This sinking feeling?

I’m walking in the wetlands
Tracing paces from the road
I’m walking in the wetlands

[Did they keep you quiet
Did you have to hide it]

Did you
See it coming at all?

See the water thick with green
Behind the buzzing motorway
The eyes of the old neighbourhood
Condensate the windowpane

Tell me do you remember
How the light hangs high?
In this subtropic centre
On these lakes built with lies?
Now it’s a roadside picnic
Now it’s a filling mouth
Eels cloud our ankles
Damn slime come for this crown!

[Still the water highway hum
Silt the mud this sinking feeling]

Did you have to hide that quiet
Hide that crime?
Why do I get this feeling?
This sinking feeling?

I’m walking in the wetlands
Faces in the undergrowth
I’m walking in the wetlands

[Did they keep you quiet
Did you have to hide it]

Did you
See it coming at all?

Did you have it hide it
Were you too afraid to say
Walking in the wetlands
The groves down behind the motorway

Did you have to hide it
When they asked you if you knew your way
Home
Darling, did you hide?
