Kong is an attempt at putting to words the ever growing disaster that is the displaced people of this world. The lyrics are trying to be personal and remembering the things that are easy to forget: the ordinary everyday lives, everyday loves, family, home left behind in deep pain trying to save life. Looking at the maps of Europe and the great West with all its promise of possibility....the lands that created all the misery in first place...

Lyrics:
love forsaken
risk worth taking
spearmint flavours all my pallet shutters
i’m a member of shattered allusions & am i needless to say
but love is big & every land every nation seeks its friends in France & Italy & all across the 7 seas
& Goddam guns & guts & history & bitter love still put a put a hole in me
bite my head off still my World will always be a little risk worth taking
bite my hand off still my World will always be another risk worth taking
gotta step out a limb swallow my pride surrender & not give myself away
little measures all the time
become part of you nothing new still have full for absolutions in my day there’s no solutions
& love is big & every land every nation seeks its friends in France & Italy & all across the 7 seas
& Goddam guns & guts & history & bitter love still put a put a hole in me
bite my head off still my World will always be a little risk worth taking
bite my hand off still my World will always be another risk worth taking
