Listening to you idle talk. Smoke rising to the ceiling. The words just seem to float on by. Maybe you've had the feeling. Then looking into my empty glass.
Out in the garden, amongst the bushes, Michael is crying.. Caught in a spider's web, its broken wings beating, a butterfly dying.. Oh la, la, la, la, la, la, la,.
When I told you I was leaving, you didn't believe what I said.. You just went right on sleeping, and rolled over in your bed.. Now were you surprised to open up your eyes,.
Sundays, as a rule, us kids went to Sunday School,. And Mrs Adlam said, angels stood round our bed.. To keep us safe from dark, right through to day begun,.
The air was cool on lily pools,. Hazy lazy,. And here and there he'd stop to stare. Admiring all the flowers,. Wandering round for hours.. The sun was warm across the lawn.
Hurrying across the bridge before the siren calls.. This morning she's chasing her shadow, along the factory wall.. And through the gate, where she will wait in line..
Hey little girl on the bicycle, wheels spin like they're riding on air.. Hey little girl on the bicycle, wheels flash like the sun in her hair.. And the wheels go round but the bike has stopped moving.
Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet,. And eating her curds and her whey.. And along came a spider and sat down beside her. And frightened Miss Muffet away..
The lights have gone dim, and the people are gone.. And clown goes back into his caravan.. Hangs up his smile on a hook by the door. And lets his ragged coat slip to the floor..
She comes riding early in the morning,. About four to seven.. No one's ever out at that hour.. With eyes that see her. Touch the morning flowers secretly..
She comes riding early in the morning,. About four to seven.. No one's ever out at that hour.. With eyes that see her. Touch the morning flowers secretly..
Night stirs her inky finger in the water of the day,. The tired sun drops slowly in the sky.. And everywhere the gentle air hangs heavy with the day song.
I stopped a man the other night. Saying isn't a beautiful sky. And although he agreed it was just to please me. I could tell that by the look in his eye.
I've heard this line before. The difference is now I understand. Remember being young?. Invincible, time was never in demand. . My adventures went for years.
I am just another who's waiting. I'm just a crack in the pavement. Lights disguise a heartache like make up. They drive the dream that will make us. Or break us.
Hey sister, I missed ya. Where have you been lately?. Did you get lost inside my eyes?. My minds a dark place I cannot imagine that. You'll ever make it out alive.
Do you ever need a hand to grab for. When another tries to take you down. Ever need a saving grace to hold you. Up when no one else is even around. . Were sick of being treated like were always wrong.
Leave our present to create a future, evolve to exist. I'm still fighting those monsters, the ones we've fed and kept in closets.. The nightmare has found us again..
The optimist in me. Was slowly eroding,. Consumed without knowing. Now regaining. Consciousness from its long sleep. . Hanging on, both eyes closed. It kills me everytime.
The skeletons out and every mistake. That you've ever made, that you've ever made. Has found it's way back, back to this place. Where all your mistakes are bound to replay.
