Midlake - Van Occupanther lyrics

I must be careful now in my steps Years of calculations and the stress My science is waiting, nearly complete One glass will last for nearly a week Let me not get down from walking with no-one and if I stumble from exhaustion These buckets are heavy, I fill them with water I could ask these people, but I shouldn't bother Oh no, I've stumbled, was I going too fast? Some get angry, some of them laugh They told me I wouldn't, but I found an answer I'm Van Occupanther, I'm Van occupanther! Let me not be too consumed with this world Sometimes I want to go home and stay out of sight for a long time Let me not be too consumed with this world Sometimes I want to go home and stay out of sight for a long time
