Like, as if we always knew
Like, as if you’d told us plenty
Like as if the bomb you had dropped
Was hollowed out and empty
A revelation in a bar
Of the night you came to see us
And all the Sleazies
And the tears that flow around the cheaters
FALSE STARTS 15 MILES APART
STUNNED BIRDS COME BACK TO LIFE WITH
SLOW HEARTS
You've been holding on so long
Bless the friend who talks you down
What’s the odds of even phoning?
But I bet you knew
The tide won’t tolerate postponing
You go stumbling away
From the mouth of Mother’s Ruin
All the salt hangs in the air to watch your every movement
FALSE STARTS 15 MILES APART
STUNNED BIRDS COME BACK TO LIFE WITH
SLOW HEARTS

HERE COMES ANOTHER YEAR
This started out like any other night
The gentle glow that fast becomes
A burning light
A corner booth in black and white
Tick tock we sync the clocks
And I’m a stroke away from being hooked upon
a thousand baited lines
For what’s the umpteenth time
Trade blows and episodes
Of border life and boredom
duly scratched in with a knife
To let the next chump know you’re here
You’ll never break another string
Or see their faces as you sing
Or watch your life benignly
slip away - we fade to grey
Here comes another year
It cuts me to hold you
I know that you're sincere
I'm glad that I told you
This is hard to hear
I thought you'd pull through
That boy who swallowed back the pill
Because we had some time to fill
This momentary rapture
Followed by the fear of capture
You’ll never break another string
Or see their faces as you sing
Or watch your life benignly
slip away - we fade to grey
Here comes another year
It cuts me to hold you
I know that you're sincere
I'm glad that I told you
This is hard to hear
I thought you'd pull through

YOU MISS THE BROKEN TURN OF EVERY PHRASE
THE QUANTUM SISTER WILL RETIRE
I’VE BEEN THE BEST THAT I CAN EVER BE
A BLACK EYED TRIPPER IN A WIRE
AND THOUGH I WASN’T OUT TO HARM A SOUL
I LET THE BEST OF THEM ALL GO
THE DROP WAS NEVER MEANT TO KILL YOU THOUGH
THE CONSTANT TRICKLE OF THE SLOW
YOU’RE THE BIRD THAT PECKS THE TEETH
I LAY SLEEPING UNDERNEATH
WE GET TOGETHER IN A VAPOR TRAIL
WITH ANY SECOND WE CAN STEAL
ALL THE WOW AND FLUTTER IN THE WORLD
COULDN’T IMITATE THE FEEL
ALL I HAD TO DO WAS SKIP A TURN
A SINGLE SINGER IN THE ROUND
I HEAR YOU DISAPPEARING EVERYDAY
AS WE PUSH THE FADER DOWN
YOU’RE THE BIRD THAT PECKS THE TEETH
I LAY SLEEPING UNDERNEATH

All The Tracers

No more talking
No more counselling
All the white noise
Slowly loudening
You will make
The move you want to make
But keep a souvenir
From here
There’s a version
Of you on the hills
And maybe one day
I’ll get off these pills
We’ve both been
Dragged up and broken down
So it could never be…..weird
Will you do it
Clear your history?
All the tracers
Trailing awkwardly
If you light it
I’ll forever feel the burn
As you disappear
