Lyrics Oil – Gorillaz feat. Stevie Nicks
Then I put my codes
In the machine
But the world I found
Was made of faulty dreams
Of faulty dreams
I was on my own there
In the psychic silence
I was looking out for
Some other kite to
Fly out of the doldrums
And recall the log
From the early database
Of your love
Of your love
Fairy-like companions
To the dark maths that catapult
Us into imagined worlds
Seems a mockery remote
Interlocking cluster bombs
Like drum and bass, I thought
Close the wells of poison
Fill them up with love
I was on my own there
I was all alone
I got lost, intangible
But that’s the place you reach when
You can’t help yourself anymore
And the madness comes
You’ll be falling into the
Bass and drum
Bass and drum
Fairy-like companions
To the dark maths that catapult
Us into imagined worlds
Seems a mockery remote
‘Cause I got no choice in it
And I’m not so cold
I could look you in the eye
And not recall
And not recall
Don’t think that my heart
Is a sad affair without you
Individual actions change the world
Fill them up with love…
