This track is about the neurological ward where Matty works. He seeks to explain why he is so passive about our everyday woes. 'Did I ever tell you about that time in Beijing' is a reference to a patient who tells him the same story every day as if they've never met.
lyrics
If im, nonchalant about our misdemeanours its probably cos of
what I see most days in this gallery,
of misfortune where Im obliged for pay to care.
For me somewhat like limbo, for them it might be hell.
Although both of us are free to leave i'll be the only one who will.
So yeah when you've lost your damn keys or the car wont start. I find it hard to really give a shit.
If that diet won't work and that thing is out of stock. I couldnt care ive had enough of it.
If you want to leave town because its all got too much, embrace you can and its a privilege.
I know I should care because it means something to you. But I really dont give a shit.
How would you be different if your life was suddenly taken from you.
Go for a walk, stretch your legs take some air, put this thought in your head and then keep it there.
There are those who are heartbreaking victims of fate, who as hard as they try are at pains to relate.
Their body a prison, all motion on wheels. The hands that feeds changes with every meal.
The organs that love and produce are destroyed, cos their piss cant escape them and you think you're fucking annoyed?
