The Legendary Pink Dots Needles (Version Sirius) Lyrics

Take a seat son. There's something I really must tell you. Now me and your Ma, we've always been positive people, haven't we son? But for the last year or so, it's all been a facade. We've been putting on a brave face. It's a sick world we live in. This is a sick neighborhood we live in. And there comes a time when you just have to stand up, take your life into your own hands, decide for change. That's why me and your Ma, have decided to go to a new place. It's a place called Sirius. Now you can't drive to Sirius, son. Can't walk there, can't get an aeroplane there. Only one way to Sirius son, and think of it a bit like closing your eyes on all the sickness and the degradation, and when you open them up again, you're in this garden! Where everybody there loves you, where everybody supports everybody else. It's that kind of place! So now I've come to the point of this little talk. Are you coming along? Think about it. I don't want to force you into anything. I'm not that kind of father, am I? I've never forced you into anything in your entire life. I've only ever been there for you. Making sacrifices for you. When you were down, when you needed someone, who was there with a shoulder to cry on? Me, always me! Always there for you, always listening. And now, just once, I'm asking you to listen to me. What's it gonna be? Don't look at me like that, son! You can trust me! I mean, God knows, I've been there for you your whole life, you should be able to trust me by now! I'm not asking for a snap decision. You can take a day or a week if you need it, just be sure, we're going! AND YOU'RE INVITED! Only, if you really wanna stay here, in all this s___! Well, that's your decision. I'll even help you, I've gotta pocket full of sleeping pills. You just take them in the garden shed and when you wake up, we'll be gone, you won't have to watch. But remember this, when you wake up, you've gotta deal with it all by yourself from then on. No shoulders to cry on then, son! You'll be facing yourself! You'll be facing your fear! You'll be standing in the presence of your fear! And boy, you'll feel it pressing in from all sides! Before you, behind you, beside you, beside you....
