This is a song about a private place I have with my buddies, where we’ve made some of the brightest memories. We’d often drive out there if someone was having a bad time and take in the expansive world around us, realising how small we all are, which in turn would alleviate the pain of our problems. It’s humbling and grounding at the same time. We shot the video and let off a bunch of fireworks at one of these spaces. The fireworks that grace tons of our videos act as a tribute to my closest friend that we lost. Smoking spot is for friendship, for love and for those shared burdens on tired shoulders.
I am desperate, I’ve buried everything for so long
Will you be the grave robber to help me dig up and dispose of this Meaningless, Emptiness that occupies my earth.
Loneliness is next to Godliness
My fingernails are caked with mud,
I’ve drowned in my head 1,000 times pretending to have hold of this conversation of exaggeration,
I’m enveloped by my own wake, is there clarity beneath the struggle?
We’re driving out to our favourite Smoking Spot
Let’s get high enough to talk about how we feel
You said “try and stay calm” as you brushed hair from my face and “I’ll do you no harm” as we looked out at our place.
We drove so far, the cliff looked inviting and as the sea crashed in the sound was exciting.
We’re driving out to our favourite Smoking Spot
Let’s get high enough to talk about how we feel.
In that moment, we finally realised that we were so small; but somehow felt alright and you kissed my cheek and said you believed in me, you kissed my cheek and said you believed in me.
