The Voidz - Wink OFFICIAL LYRICS

Wink
i see the writing on the wall was playing to safe
playing it too safe is dangerous
all the things that kept me going was all the things that slowed me down
i see the writing on the wall
i thought it was here but it's not my fault
you said it was there but it's not over there
oh fuck yeah
it's gonna be somewhere you'll see
i don't wanna know, guess we can make up stuff to talk about
i wanna put you in my crocodile mouth and drag you to the bottom of my swamp,
oh fuck yeah,
it's gonna be something to see.
-
i don't really know where i'm going
not sure that i wanna be knowing
everyone the hero in their made-up movie life
i was playing it too safe i see…
playing it too safe is dangerous,
maybe not for me but for them
people who do not do anything know exactly where all their time is going, oh fuck yeah,
they're gonna be
happier, maybe…?
people in the wrong bodies, mountain broken like a heart,
drive a highway thru you like a rainbow arc,
it's all over there !
aww, somewhere…
it's gonna be
cheap, maybe free
stay awhile
i never wanted it to go that way
say it in a while
… plane flies thru the moon
oh we could think of things to talk about,
save it in a pile

Why does he never get an adequate level of acclaim for his genius harmonies and melodies??????

[@RSanchez111]

It don't go over well on the toxic radio

[@Redddickjj2003]

its way too advanced man way too ahead of its time

[@taherpartapuri3140]

Trash like minaj cardi b and the likes get millions of views within days of releasing a new song, and it's just women twerking to shit music

[@dreamwithinadreamfilms]

Because he blew-up too big in the early 2000’s, (with The Strokes) now everything he makes is compared with/defined by that time. (Just my opinion.)

One of my favorites on the album. Love the whole thing. Not sure why some people are complaining about the drums and the ending. I think this whole song is super fun and I keep coming back to it.

[@rafaelfreire3792]

[@AjatiMimi]

I remember being really excited to listen to this song after having heard the live version, but then when I heard the studio version I was very disappointed. Coming back now after a few years I still think the live version is much better than this although I don't it's particularly bad anymore.

[@navilaphillips2845]

What a way to kill this song xD

[@MrShahid0072]

Julian probably didn't wanna create another perfect album like Is this it to avoid the hype😁

[@davidmesa7008]

@@MrShahid0072 that's pretty much my theory lol. This song was way too nice and poppy so they recorded it to sound this way to be more Voidzy. Pop music is poison.

[@blackphoenix8932]

This version sounds way more funky/dance worthy & has that gorgeously addictive broken speaker distortion. The live version sounds great but it is very Strokes circa 2006/first impressions of earth b-side for my liking. This may be an unpopular opinion, but I much prefer this version.

[@davesalk]

BlackPhoenix 72 I agree 100%

[@default3623]

I'd argue its pretty good. It sounds a lot more like someone going through the motions, trying to act happy.

[@4balls187]

I dont care what you say fantano you're not my dad

[@moonsmonsters]

Idk this song never resonated with me. Still doesn't

[@alisonistic]

I think it’s just about the emotion you put into it. This song to me is all at once intensely sexually suggestive (the title & chorus lol) & also kinda romantic in a simple but really creative & fresh way. I could be entirely wrong but my imagination’s pretty robust haha

[@thisismyname5657]

Without the drums and with an actual ending this song would have been so much better.

[@jaredbond7908]

I honestly think he trashed the recorded versions of these songs (and on the last album) because playing it straight would be too boring... he didn't want to do radio quality stuff anymore. Or I guess, even stuff that's comfortable to listen to. Poor guy is breaking down I think...

[@MrSpeedracer05]

More like evolved. I think he’s getting better

[@jaredbond7908]

yeah, gotta admit, I've changed my mind on this.... a bit of ugliness was always a part of the Strokes. however one interprets it.

[@jaredbond7908]

you know, this, more than ever.... kindness with a middle finger. that's how I see it. 😄 .... just expecting to be disappointed.

[@bubbs9586]

Oh fuck yeah
