11. After All These Years


Across The Night 

Across the night 
It was the moon that stole my slumber 
Across the night 
I fell in love with people sleeping 
And hugged a man's arthritic shoulder 

I fell tired, asleep in a golden ocean 
Your eyes perspired, a spike in my fascination 

I don't mean to make you cry 
But this feeling will run right through the night 
And I'll only make you cry with these feelings 

Sleepless, untamed without a leash on the light around me 

So let us be married and have another baby 
Coz I don't wanna be lonely I just wanna be alone 
Yes let's just get married shouting baby, baby, babies 
"You'll never sleep at all" 
But I don't wanna be lonely 

Never seen the sunshine 
From higher points than sunrise 


The Greatest View 

You're the analyst 
The fungus in my milk 
When you want no one 
And you got someone 
Through the wind 
You crawl 
And laugh at burning dunes 
When no one else will 
Ever see 

Now that you know why you feel like you do 
They're turning their head whilst they wait 
For no one 
And finally I know why you feel like letting go 

I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 
I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 

Mistakes don't mean a thing 
If you don't regret them 
So pack your tactic toes for the winter 
Chain a waterfall to burned and withered skin 
No-one else will ever see 

I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 
I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 

Now that you know why you feel like you do 
They're turning their head whilst they wait 
For no one 
And finally I know why I feel like you're letting go 

I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 
I'm watching you watch 
Over me and I've got 
The greatest view from here 
The greatest view from here 
The greatest view 


Without You 
Miles away 
There's hopeless smiles brighter than mine 
And I need for you to come and go 
Without the truth falling out 

Old incisions refusing to stay 
Like the sun through the trees on a cloudy day 

Telephone 
Socially scared and impaired 
If the trees will bloom the wind can blow 
Without the fruit falling out 

Feels like the wind blows 
Holding you with us 
She takes no other 
Falls light and ashes 
Blooming like winter 
Dry eyes and cracked lips 
Under the stone wall 
Withdrawn and wishless 

And you brighten my life like a polystyrene hat 
But it melts in the sun like a life without love 
And I've waited for you so i'll keep crying out 
Without you 


World Upon Your Shoulders 
All the bridges in the world 
Won't save you 
If there is no other side 
To cross to 

When you're world's not feeling ugly 
And the world's not too much 
Take the world upon your shoulders 
And burn, burn, burn, burn, burn 

Half full glasses 
Lost in empty houses 

Violent, big and violent 
Like a thing that's big, big 
And violent 


One Way Mule 

Let my spirit ride on a one way mule 
Blistered skin in a cold hearted pool 
Distant emotion hides a concrete wall 
Naked and anchored I'll climb right back 
To you 

Love me for my mind, coz I'm a dangerous heart 
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back for you 
I'll stake out just to find 
The knife in a dangerous heart 
When I've got time to kill I'm coming back for you 

Distant memories in a cage by my bed 
Viscid dreams stick to holes in my head 
But a patient career of sleep in a Sunday dress 
Rides my wake 


Tuna In The Brine 

I fondle keys to my heart when everyone's heart 
Seems so calm 
And you found the lock 
To my dorm and opened the door to my trust 
Fund my vestry 
The light in my darkest hour is fear 
Denies me of anything good so
Don't lose your heart you'll need it 
You'll have to take another pill and tell another lie 
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine 

Take everything that you're not and don't be so 
Scared to tamper (temper) with (temper) "tampered with" evidence (tamper) 
Coz you'll come along for the sun if you come at all 
To lose your heart you'll have to take, take and take 

Painting a lie seeing the colours but you seem 
Closer to everything 

Closer now than we ever have been 
We're closer now that we ever should (we) be 
Closer now than we've ever been before 
Closer to everything 

Busking for change and changing everything 
Feeble fables aren't changing many things 
It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brine 
For my pregnant paws aren't changing anything 
To all of the animals who keep sipping the sweat 
From my back, 
You're making me ill 
And 
I can't get enough 
So take another pill and tell another lie 
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine 


Too Much Of Not Enough 

She tripped on a hole that I'd dug in the soil 
To be part of a human garden and I couldn't 
Stand in the straight postured sun 
But you stood in the mud which came unsoiled 
When I came along 
You see it's good for nothing, good for nothing 
A close look at something 
So close 
It's too much of not enough 
When all we need is just a taste 
I strapped myself in for a safe saccharide 
Before it started I tried to be anything I saw fit 
And it all seemed to fit but you came undone 
When I came along 
Blind white lies and shallow truth 
Broken strings and stolen youth 
I've seen too much of not enough but 
You came much closer than they had before 
You never stop needing 
And it's good for nothing 


Luv Your Life 

Thrust the candle to the dark of your disease 
Burn the fishplate execute ill memories 
Labyrinth of sympathy in which I'm lost and can't leave 
And too much truth overshadows the lime lies 
And what lies beneath the clouds is an 
Altered perception and I'll pay for sanity 
But sanity don't come cheap 

You don't know the truth and I love your life 
Flinch against the fire but this ain't winter 
And I'm all by myself the way I wanna be 
Where I'm content to be to be all by myself 
But frozen eyes are bound to melt 


The Lever 

Turn the mirrors face the wall 
Don't you feel a little weak? 
And I'd catch you when you fall 
But you're falling all the time 
Do you need it anymore? 
Or do you need a little more? 

Living your life like you're bull in the trade 
He doesn't know how it feels 
Under my thumb like a bone under nail 
She's in the know, how's it feel? 

Live your life under machine guns 
Canary down the mine 

Maybe I'm on the lever 

Spoiling my broth like a radio kid 
Programmed computerised mind 
Waving my luck under your nose 
Like I found a four leaf clover 


My Favourite Thing 

Got my fever down, then weighed it up, and know the 
Sounds remaining won't strain all the silt from my eyes 
Bleach the green from the pastures, feast on the grey 
Of the night, straight from the vines refusal to shine 

You're my favourite thing - the one that I love 
You're the one so I'd die for your love 

Blind the deafened moon, stimulate the tombs of angels 
I'll open my heart won't fall apart 
Don't fall apart
You're my favourite thing 
And I feel like letting go


After All These Years 

Breathe in the night 
That crushed a tired sunrise 
Born again the day 
Brings you naivety 

A laptop souvenir is worth its weight 
In silver a golden son 
You'll be home again 
And I'll be home again 

Mend in my sleep 
I'm boxing under water 
Waddle on the wake 
Waking on a summer day 

After all these years 
Forget about all the troubled times 
Munificent, artless and ascetic 
Playing like a scared 
Enthusiastic pawn 

And every father's pain 
Casts a shadow over a broken son 
You'll be whole again 
And I'll be whole again 

All those years 
I was hurting to feel 
Something more than life
