Seeing in technicolour
I can see right through you
With a steady gaze and a distrust for people
Seeing the future in your tea
There is nothing going on
This is boring, I’m going home
And if you go into the night, if you go right outta sight, you can never return, you can never come back again…
Your spacecraft has gone up in flames
You live inside your picture frames
Daisy doesn’t want to talk to you anymore
Tony was an astronaut
People said he’d gone to high
But Tony doesn’t care anymore
Who’s turn is it now to roll the dice?
You’re worried you’ll subject your vice
And you’re looking for a helping hand
Death is just around the corner
And you’re running out of luck
You’re running out of milk

Some Escape

Some escape, summer's gone, this path seems so clear but so long
Past the door, through the gate, cross the old pebble beach to the lake, the sea is staring at me and all I can see is you and your young looking smile, is taking me for a ride
Your young looking smile
We'll go our separate ways
Motorbike down the lane, summer rain and our faces in the morning mist, overdrive, china fuzz, rock n roll and a vacant guitarist, my mantra belongs to you, fall to the floor and the twelve bar blues, johnny too bad and a t-shirt tan, singing half asleep while I can, then you
And your young looking smile
We'll go our separate ways

Cloud My Vision
03:53

Monday morning, I moved the couch to the middle of the room
The clocks ticking, I guess it takes a little time
A little time is all I need, but instead, you move closer
Closer and you cloud my vision
And with every waking hour
The air we breathe turns sour (or ‘wilting like a daisy flower’)
And with every passing day
We move closer and further away
Opened the curtains, heaven knows I’m missing her now
Now I’m on my own, things will never be the same
The same day I saw you, walking by, I couldn’t hear a word you said
You said don’t worry, succumb to me I’ll cloud your vision
I’m on the hilltop, looking up, if the sky falls down it’s gonna hit me first
Hit me, with your predominant charms, and fall into my arms
Fall, away, again…
Come on down I’ll cloud your vision

Jeane,
The low life has lost its appeal
And I'm tired of walking these streets
To a room with its cupboards bare
Jeane,
I'm not sure what happiness means
But I look in your eyes and I know...
That it isn't there
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried...
Oh Jeane...
There's ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know its a grave
Yet you still have that greedy grace...
As you tidy the place
But it will never be clean...
Jeane
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried...
Gash on the nail
Its just a fairytale...
And I don't believe in magic anymore, Jeane...
But I think you know,
I really think you know
Oh yes I think you know the truth, Jeane
No heavenly choirs not for me
And no not for you
Because I think you know
I really think you know
I think you know the truth
Oh Jeane
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried and we failed
We tried...

The Night

Go to sleep, return again
Go to sleep, return my friend
In the beginning of the end
In the night, my only friend
The night
Go to sleep, come back again, reach an arm, find yourself, within a cloud of silver lines and prickly thorns and demons eyes
Am I alone?
Am I alone?
The night
Feels just right
