lyrics

I woke up, in the middle of the night
Pretty song in my head it was
Pumping out its tune
Rest of the day I been
Tryin to get it back
But it's gone into the ether
It ain't ever coming back
And it's kinda like how you left me
Left me feeling kinda cold and blue
Oh it is, kinda like how you left me
Left me feeling kinda cold and blue

I gotta fill out these forms
To prove my existence
Like I was some kinda criminal
Living off the system
Thought I needed some help
So I put out my hand
But they keep, slapping it away
Telling me I'm bad
And it's like a stretched friendship
It's left me feeling kinda cold and blue
Oh it is, like a stretched friendship
It's left me feeling kinda cold and blue

There ain't no jobs left, in this state no more
C'ept for in the mining towns
All this flying in, flying out
Flapping about
But I'm at home with my darling, with my cats
And I might leave to go on holidays
Or to sing this song to you
And it's left me feeling kinda cold and blue
The way they've been ripping up our land
Just for fossil fuels
Oh yeah it's left me feeling kinda cold and blue
It's like handing over your soul
To fuel their mining boom

I woke up in the, middle of the night
Pretty song in my head it was
Pumping out its tune
Rest of the day I been
Trying to get it back
But it's gone into the ether
It ain't ever coming back
And it's kinda like how you left me
Left me feeling kinda cold and blue
Oh it is, kinda like how you left me
Left me feeling kinda cold and blue
