Landfill Lyrics

Throw me in the landfill
Don't think about the consequences
Throw me in the dirt pit
Don't think about the choices that you make

Throw me in the water
Don't think about the splash I will create
Leave me at the altar
Knowing all the things you just escaped

Push me out to sea
On a little boat that you made
Out of the evergreen
That you helped your father cut away

Leave me on the tracks
To wait until the morning train arrives
Don't you dare look back, walk away
Catch up with the sunrise

'Cause this is torturous electricity
Between both of us and this is dangerous
'Cause I want you so much
But I hate your guts, I hate you

So leave me in the cold
Wait until the snow covers me up
So I cannot move
So I'm just embedded in the frost

And leave me in the rain
Wait until my clothes cling to my frame
Wipe away your tear stains
Thought you said you didn't feel pain

Well, this is torturous electricity
Between both of us and this is dangerous
'Cause I want you so much but I hate your guts
I want you so much but I hate your guts
Well, this is torturous electricity
Between both of us and this is dangerous
'Cause I want you so much but I hate your guts
I want you so much but I hate your guts

Daughter is Elena Tonra, a singer/songwriter from North London, UK.

The band signed in 2012 with 4AD and in August a new track, 'Smother', surface online. A 7" single of the song was released on October 1st, including a new version of 'Run'. The final advance of their first full length album, 'Still', premiered its video on January 28th 2013.

They reconvened to re-enact the set with 10 graduates of the Royal Northern College of Music at London's iconic Air Studio. Filmed by Jane Pollard and Iain Forsyth, the '4AD Session EP' was released on 15th April 2014.
