Come see me on your way to the future
I'll remember you Never had you down as a lifelong moocher I suppose its true Blaze a path through the world so vast I'll remember you Choose wisely and not too fast I know when its due. You picked my pocket full of love I remember that You sang songs and looked above I showed you how You waited in the queue to look I remember that You never asked, always took I see it all now. It could have been perfection I'd remember well But there was never any direction My soul to sell Frozen forever, locked in time I'd remember well Lost for words, but sublime Cursed by a wicked spell.

She's lost in space
Blown up in her face This lingering love That lessening feel Sailed away, on the ocean so genteel Against all desire Beyond all wildfire The wings severed by anger The wings broken under strain Sailed away, on the ocean again Forever she was doomed Forever to be vacuumed Sucked into oblivion The devil licking his lips Sailed away, through a million lost ships. We shared a mouth, yet had no voice
We shared these hand, with little to hold We shared the soul, united The best of the things to behold It was right to walk away, maybe It was right that love ended But It was wrong to see the finish line Sooner then ever intended. Faces filled with nothing
Places that are heading nowhere Faces filled with nothing I never want to go back there Flick the switch to something new Press the button to get a clue Air heads in the air space Head case winning the race Life in the last lane Driven to destruction, again Young hoods resist arrest Failure to notice, nobody impressed Heading for disaster Plunging into the nuclear reactor Faces filled with emotion Places buzzing with happy life Faces filled with emotion Where prosperity is rife Flick the switch to a better day Press the button to escape decay Post delivered to the end of the world The pages yellowing and curled The edge of tomorrow The cliff face of sorrow Walking away from this existence The exorcism of a past demon The freedom of resistance That happens in the last lane. The strong get what they want
The weak are left behind The girls want the mighty They don't want the rind The powerful devour the food As the meek pick the scraps Until the waifs and strays revolt They will be kept in their traps Knowledge is power Money is corrupt Intelligence over-rated The end is abrupt Life on the edge Beats life under rule Do what you like But don't be a fool The assertive kind will win As the will of the masses fails The faltering persona of rebellion Has become slower than snails The fat cat capitalist regime And all that sit within Should be dropped into the abyss As we all laugh, and grin As you approach, there's the roar of the crowd
Been like that forever, yet you're still proud This football lark, nothing compares To a feeling of defeat or trophies upstairs The belonging and family in the stand If you fall down, they lend a hand The laminated ball means everything to you Some say it's sad, others think how you do Nothing beats the swaying support All in the name of this national sport Only football can truly break your heart But you will always feel like you are a part Forget the violent, drunken reputation Thrust upon us by this great nation You are a football fan, you are part of it all You are the barmy army, following that ball As the soundtrack rocks to Britpop and bass The sting of a wet ball in your face You'd never change any part of it, though Trust me on that one, I know. The time we spent together was no mistake
I may have made some, its hard to take Just one regret, that you're not mine Me and you is no more, but stars still shine As long as the ocean is filled with water As long as houses are made from bricks and mortar As long as the sky turns its various shade Then I can accept the price I've paid. It will be hard, it will be strange My feelings have found a different range This is the only way that I can express This sombre feeling intended to depress But no more moping, moaning or blame Things will never be still, great or even the same The experience has made me worse and better But it can't make the sun go out, or rain any wetter. Nothing can make it okay, or turn back time Nothing can bring it back, no reason or rhyme Everything happens for their own twisted reasons Everything changes, quicker than the seasons All my dreams are coming back into play All my aspirations are returning the right way. I was watching the candle flicker
The room lighting up Listening to the clock, stop that ticker Again though I watched and waited Until the moon hung in the sky Like a ball of cheese, not yet grated Hanging around like a silver sphere Taking in all that surrounds it Including me, right here Little stars shine like fire The smell of anguish in the air The sounds you hear when the liar Talks to you about some stuff Waiting until he's finished his words And you tell him that’s enough The sun comes out to play The moon is forced to hide To come out another day The twilight hour now gone The romance of the evening dead I said it once about how it shone The dance of the constellation Watching the comets in the sky Empowering like a great oration The bell ringing on the blackness The sound of you next to me Having a laugh and singing I would never want to be Anywhere else but here Under the stars and in the shade I have my life completely made... The vibrations rippled across the water
At the sight of this shocking slaughter A silver shaft of light had covered The love and the hope, gently smothered The inky night sky looked so vast But realised it could never last The broken feelings of mistrust Make you age and slowly rust I must confess that's how it went That I failed as a force that's spent Not that breaking up is hard to do But it was when it was me and you Thinking back to all the madness Touched by a ghost of human sadness Maybe it was my turn to pay this time As my life lacked rhythm and rhyme Right and wrong does not matter When dreams, so fragile, quickly shatter So cancel all that love, and hate And release yourself from this upset state. She comes into my mind
With no warning, in from behind Thoughts overtaken by Daydream Daisy And no cliché has ever been so lazy Nothing has felt so wrong As when we said so long Will I ever see Daydream Daisy? In the autumn of life, memories hazy. She takes over my brain She takes over my head She knows how to inflict pain She knows how to play dead. There has never been such love Than the love from my conscious thought There has never been more of a threat Than the fear that my dreams will abort The polaroid still of Daydream Daisy Gone forever, but always crazy The sunny past of Daydream Daisy Never ceases to amaze me. She takes over my brain She takes over my head She knows how to inflict pain She knows how to play dead. Married now and living her life I wonder if she remembers it all Thoughts about Daydream Daisy Before motherhood made its call We were happy, carefree and easy Nothing to lose but each other Goodbye, Daydream Daisy I hope my mind can recover. |
