lyrics

In the twisted realm where dreams collapse
A game of broken mirrors with broken bats
I stroll through shadows, swinging free
Hey! it's Nina ballerina, lost in lunacy

A vicious dance under the moon's spite
diamonds glitter in fading light
I swing with fury, a hurricane wrath
shattering illusion, leaving nothing intact

yet, you can't hit that with a baseball bat

you can't hit that with a baseball bat
you can't hit back with a baseball bat
you can't hit that with a baseball bat
you can't hit back with a baseball bat

you can't hit back

so let the cracks deepen, as the world falls apart
my bat swings and is ruled by my heart
whispers echo out in the empty stands
as I strike hard with bat in my hands
blood stains the ground, a crimson red
I swung hard and I hit it dead
dead in the centre, knocked it out of the park...

you can't hit that with a baseball bat
you can't hit back with a baseball bat
you can't hit that with a baseball bat
you can't hit back with a baseball bat

you can't hit that with a baseball bat

Don't bother looking for it, yeah
it looked like a six!

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
