Bakery

stop ringing the telephone
it did what it did and i let it go
wait tight for a man to be
on hands and knees - that's how you think of me?
your wanting will not address
the shiver you get when you talk to them
the odd hook that i have to call
and repeat/ignore
it's not what i'm aiming for
never could the writer say what to say
so leave me at my worst again
is this the bright and blue?
make this worth waiting through
she sits in a bakery
it never meant anything much to me
just something electrical
not ethical
play by my body's rule
doesn't pay to overcome what you've done
talking to yourself in bed
is this the bright and blue?
make this worth waiting through
as i stand you will dance
overcome what you've done
sing it to yourself again
is this the bright and blue?
make this worth waiting through

Kinks In Armour

no darker karma
kinks in armour
i'm inventing such
raving and rattling
all that cursing in your head
don't think for me
happy breathing
the night sea air
oh sweet lady reverie
she offers sugar for the cuts
damned little saint made her belly ache
and nothing
in one hundred years of give and take
is coming good
i'll always be brave
on one day in one age
she said "i've seen the devil in this town"
and gave me the vaccine
i've got one naked in a cell
oh my
damned little saint made her belly ache
and nothing
in one hundred years of give and take
is coming good
dragging my feet
out of the fog
up to the hill
where i was from
the longer it takes
the more that i age
burning restraint
again and again
dragging my feet
out of the fog
up to the hill
where i was from
dragging my feet
out of the fog
there's someone to meet
boiling the pot
hissing and hot
ready or not
come to a stop
where is your god?

ahead, oh unwilling captain
i hear the grinding of white bared teeth
aware the absence of a harness
undoes all except the knot in me
spent these last few weeks like foreign currency
it's not to do what's as expected
or swing madly on a wrecking ball
i'll learn the california two-step
and dance with monsters at the public hall
hell will be well paid by all the friends i've made
by all the friends i've made
and i see violence
and i see kindness
and i see violence
and i see kindness
i'm responsible
coming to a halt

Burn Down The Lighthouse
03:22
|
|||
i know i shouldn't go there
it's a disaster in there
now that i'm thinking of you
and as i sank through the salt
he pulled me into this boat
but i've been floating without you
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
there is proof in some kind
of focus, in black and white
how could it actually be?
i don't want to sit and talk
no i can't deal with the thought
that i am here, and you're not
burn down the lighthouse
burn it to the ground
there's nothing left now
but broken glass and photographs
they run away with the most
as both the servant and host
the greedy fingers of time
no-one says
what i should do with the rest
the inescapable mess
i guess i best exist
