I like looking at the sky As the wind the plays through The skirts of the trees The silence knows How afraid we are of it Cherished memories Bleed and bloom Our secrets like seeds Get swept up and carried through Our neighbourhood Safe as houses Tuck me in Daylight waits for no man Your're still young and breathing's easy Suck it in What a wasteless façade What a pity we've come this far The rain will fall and baptise Our strongholds, our sheltered lives Closed blinds, drawn curtains And vinyl floors can't hide Sane memories Bleed and bloom Our secrets like weeds Creeps up to the roof Our neighbourhood Safe as houses Tuck me in Daylight waits for no man Your're still young and breathing's easy Suck it in What a wasteless façade What a pity we've come this far Our lucious denial Our devoured minds Our thoughts remain impotent Our pillows stay fertile Safe as houses Tuck me in Daylight waits for no man Your're still young and breathing's easy Suck it in What a wasteless façade What a pity we've come this far
I know you got these lyrics from Genius, and also that this comment is over a year old, but it's "What a waste this facade", not "What a wasteless facade".
One of the most underrated bands that could have made it... Still remember watching them at a live show In 2010 in mosselbay. Stumbled upon the show by accident
Reminds me of the good old days, eating sadza and mopani worms under an acacia tree in Gokomere, talking to the birds whilst they swear at the grasslands
i cant wait until the day that I can see bands like this and ohters play in a free world. Its called a festival where they can play live and people have their freedom of choice to go there but right now bits not possible. So shit guys what is going on
It's curious that no one mentions aKING was the VanFokKingTasties offshoot where the members wanted to form a Christian redemption band. Yup. aKING is a Christian band 😋

Glad to see we have good taste in music
I like looking at the sky
As the wind the plays through
The skirts of the trees
The silence knows
How afraid we are of it
Cherished memories
Bleed and bloom
Our secrets like seeds
Get swept up and carried through
Our neighbourhood
Safe as houses
Tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
Your're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
What a wasteless façade
What a pity we've come this far
The rain will fall and baptise
Our strongholds, our sheltered lives
Closed blinds, drawn curtains
And vinyl floors can't hide
Sane memories
Bleed and bloom
Our secrets like weeds
Creeps up to the roof
Our neighbourhood
Safe as houses
Tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
Your're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
What a wasteless façade
What a pity we've come this far
Our lucious denial
Our devoured minds
Our thoughts remain impotent
Our pillows stay fertile
Safe as houses
Tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
Your're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
What a wasteless façade
What a pity we've come this far

How afraid we are of it
Cherished memories bleed and bloom
Our secrets like seeds
Get swept up, and carried through our neighbourhood
Safe as houses, tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
You're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
Oh, what a waste this facade
What a pity we've come this far
The rain will fall and baptise
Our strongholds, our sheltered lives
Closed blinds, drawn curtains
And vinyl floors can't hide
Stained memories bleed and bloom
Our secrets like weeds
Creeps up to the roof of our neighbourhood
Safe as houses, tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
You're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
Oh, what a waste this facade
What a pity we've come this far
Now luscious denial
Our devoured minds
Our thoughts remain impotent
Our pillows stay fertile
Safe as houses, tuck me in
Daylight waits for no man
You're still young and breathing's easy
Suck it in
Oh, what a waste this facade
What a pity we've come this far
