Kuala Lumpur

Kevin Devine

[Verse 1]
Kuala Lumpur, away from the world
Away from the girl, you met on the wall
Of the museum, you swore she knew your deal

Kuala Lumpur, get safe for a spell
There's no one to tell, how you're shrinking and small
And wasting your freedom, examining how you feel

[Chorus 1]
If it's so funny then why don't you laugh
Your "if onlys" and "imagine thats"
Invented rivalries, embittered halves
No one's waitin' on you to fix it now

[Verse 2]
Your fantasy spreads, pushed pins through a map
Or dropped in an app, you ask "can a curse, have a radius clause
Someplace it just can't reach?"

Kuala Lumpur, or maybe Eugene, or Albuquerque
'cuz here hasn't worked, you're losing and lost
And haunted by your newsfeed:

[Bridge]
Mar-a-Lago and their coffee talk
Chocolate cake and 60 tomahawks
You turned them on so much, you turned it off
No more waitin' on them to fix it now

[Chorus 2]
If it's so funny then why don't you laugh
Your "if onlys" and "imagine thats"
Embedded rivalries, cemented casts
[?] aristocrats

It spiked the bloodstream once it hit the air
[?] nihilistic, nothing spared
What good's escaping if it's everywhere?
Better figure out how to fix it
Better figure out how to fix it now

[Outro]
Kuala Lumpur, dissolve in the spell, there's nothin' to tell
