Testo Diagnoses - Kae Tempest
Testo della canzone Diagnoses (Kae Tempest), tratta dall'album Diagnoses
Me and you and our diagnoses
A perfect match in a bag of explosives
Catch of the day in a toxic ocean
Nothing wrong with us, it's the world that's broken
Two tokens short of the rollercoaster
Ancient conditions with brand new solutions
In the old days, they'd be doing ablutions
I'd be a prophet and you'd be a seer
Or you'd be a healer, I'd be a freak runaway with the circus
And we'd meet after work for a barrel of beer, yeah
Me and you and our diagnoses
All cosied up, but it's hard to focus
Me and you and our trauma flashbacks
Relaxing at home with a Horlicks backpack
Stuffed full of my dysphoria, your dyspraxia
Off exploring, panic attacks to get the heart rate up
Good cardiovascular, we'll get back to ya
After a short psychotic episode
If I even leave the house, I'll forget to close the door
I'll forget what I went out for
And come back with a random object or four
Quetiapine, lamotrigine, fluoxetine
You wash it down with Listerine
I've never felt so at home
Since methylphenidate and testosterone
C-PTSD, ADHD, OCD and PMDD
Anxious attachment, TBI
But it's the world that's sick, baby, we're alright
C-PTSD, ADHD, anxiety
Bipolar, addiction, neurodivergence
I'd be more worried if we weren't disturbed
We got our own alphabet
Big bunch of letters between U and I
It's the right response to a world gone wrong
And we're getting on just fine
Me and you and our diagnoses
Out for a wander, it's coffee and oat milk
The posher the roastery, the more you want it
'Cause you came from nothing and you're out for the summit
So we go hard but it's softly, softly
And we're so scarred, but it's not a problem
There's a lot of good reasons to stop what we're doing
But my disassociation means I've forgotten, uh
Overwhelmed and over-diagnosed and overexposed, I suppose
With all these letters we're dragging around
It's lucky I turned that MBE down
We just take it day by day
Staying doesn't mean you never wanna run away
It means you weather it, whether it's pleasure every minute
Or a bit of hard graft, dig in, hold fast
C-PTSD, ADHD, OCD and PMDD
Anxious attachment, TBI
It's the world that's sick, baby, we're alright
C-PTSD, ADHD, anxiety
Bipolar, addiction, neurodivergence
I'd be more worried if we weren't disturbed
