Gorillaz and St. Vincent - Chalk Tablet Towers

Chalk tablet towers
Like drawing shadows
Chemical distractions
You are not with me
I departed in the spring
To a distant star
But I could not get back
I had gone too far

Oh oh oh oh oh

I wanna get drunk
I wanna get stoned
I wanna give up
I wanna go home

Watching rockets take off
From a parting sea
How will I ever touch you
If you are not with me? (Oh oh oh oh oh)
(Out here) there's only silence
(Out here) no form of contact
(Out here) I am dreaming
Looking into the darkness

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
(Oh oh oh oh oh)

I won't be back 'til the end of summer
Will you still be there?
I won't give up on you darling
Just tell me that you care
I don't need no trophies
No cell with a view
There's nothing I wouldn't give
One minute with you-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

(You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh oh oh oh oh
