musical interlude
Click to viewOh well I best say something
to stop us creeping round these avenues
you're always keeping all you're borders up
I bet you're getting a little confused(I don't think so)
Well it's time to turn this thing around
well there's no reason for this thing you found
You're always keeping all your borders up
I think it's time we tore them all down
You gotta fight for a reason,
what's your reason?
You never cared.
Oh, what a shame.
Sticks and stones may break my bones.
Words will never hurt.
This statement feels so untrue
When you're lying in the dirt.
'Cause it feels like I've been
I've been here before
You are not my savior
But I still don't go
Feels like something
That I've done before
I could fake it
But I still want more
Fade, made to fade
Passion's overrated anyway
Say, say my name
I need a little love to ease the pain
I need a little love to ease the pain
It's easy to remember when it came
It's a long way down and everything's broken
It's crazy what some will do for love
It's a long day coming and the stone is crumbling
Do you fear what you might find on the other side?
You can wish what you want
Let us guide you home
But we are not yours
You better leave the stars alone
Now that I’m alone I feel the lonely brokeness
Of all the wicked avenues I’ve ever sold my love on
All these moments of meekness and trembling subsided
In the outright abandon of this orphan child
Home is on the highway living on soft bread and solace
I guess I’m waiting for nightfall or a solar eclipse
And to wake up half empty
Only to be filled again with mourning
He’s my evil shadow dog
My black Palamito, can’t break him like a diamond skull
I can’t seem to do so, can’t just rub him out like the
Mob used to do so Like memories of porno and tea stains
And tobacco, oh it's a mini disastro
Bigger than the ice age don’t know if baby dinosaurs
Maybe could live through it, like Indians and butterflies
What’s crushed is my spirit, O I fear it is too fragile
Like fall leaves burn like paper
I always knew I would spend a lot of time alone
No one would understand me
Maybe I should go and live amongst the animals
Spend all my time amongst the animals
And on the tracks I would go they lead to the sea
To be amongst the animals
Couldn't sleep so I went out walking
Thinking about you and hearing us talking
And all the things I should have said
Echo now, inside my head
I feel something falling from the sky
I'm so sad I made the angels cry
Tears from the moon
Fall down like rain
I reach for you
I reach in vain
Second guessin' first impressions
There you go again
Rushing off in all directions
Since I don't know when
All day long you're building walls
You're building walls all day
Putting ceilings on your feelings
When they should fly away
Don't you think it's time you quit it
Don't you think it's time you admit it
Your heart is more worthy of trust
Than the thoughts in your mind that sit there gathering dust
Lord unchain my hands
Let me sing inside the crowded trams
Let me dance among the traffic jams
We're going to sleep
On the St Kilda sands
Lord unbind my feet
Let me mingle with the good people
We meet
Water rising up into the street
Unbind my feet
'The apparition of these faces in
The crowd;
Petals on a wet black bough"
Ezra Pound found the formula
Our houses are rectangular
But life is curved not angular
So when things start to strangular
Remember
Rain still falls on the halls of power
New babies being born every hour
And the eagle keeps watch on the old clock tower
Over me...
