James - What's It All About Lyrics






Coiled rattlesnake
You play a waiting game
Warn me away
Shake your rattle

One kiss in flames
White rabbits in my veins
Dismember me
Back together

Pain causes change
My life's an altered state
Why complicate
What we're saying?

I'm a procreator
Prisoner and jailer
Lover and a hater
We are one together

See you as another
Mystery to discover
Sing to my confessor
I was made to pleasure

America gets madder
Rise and fall together
Dancing into rapture
Dig for buried treasure

Love beyond no measure
Walking on the water
Bend within the river
Meet you at the border's edge

What's it all about?
What's it all about?

I'm in a state
In a sacred space
Mad as a lead
Poisoned hatter

Rewind, erase
My life is so mundane
Kiss the lips of a snake
To discover

I'm a procreator
Prisoner and jailer
Lover and a hater
We are one together

See you as another
Mystery to discover
Sing to my confessor
I was made to pleasure

America gets madder
Rise and fall together
Dancing into rapture
Dig for buried treasure

Love beyond no measure
Walking on the water
Bend within the river
Meet you at the border's edge

What's it all about?
What's it all about?

Collusion, consume us
What makes your cut?
Collusion, consume us
Trailed off to nowhere

Our El Dorado
Buried in landslides
Got lost to drop in
Trailed off to nowhere

Our El Dorado
Spiders and quicksand
Fevered night visions
Tourists beware

On a journey, uninvested
I've been asked to wait
From below the wishing's twisted
From above it's straight

Don't know where
Don't know how
Know it's fate

On a journey, uninvested
I've been asked to wait
From below the wishing's twisted
From above it's straight

Don't know where
Don't know how
Know it's fate

Don't know where
Don't know how
Know it's fate
