Geese Flew
Under the stairs and I hop
over the doorstep into your world
writing on paper, a desktop
I'm coming home to the house
You're sitting there as conversation begins
Everything's safe and warm now
On the day that you were leaving
no rain fell down but the sky was grey
Our house was cold and strange that evening
disbelieving, time so slow
the geese flew low
-England is breathing over here
within the books and into your head
I write this as I miss you

The Code

the code
in the darkness
in the vault where
in the emptiness
where you have to live
from nature’s gift
one fine day you'll come home singing
on that day you'll be amazed
careful
always watching
ever waiting
until it's time to kill
fitting Harry's code is a heavy load
until it's time to...
and your sister
you so miss her
until it's time to...
one fine day you'll come home singing
on that day life will change
the code
in the darkness
in the vault where
in the emptiness
where you have to live
from nature’s gift
one fine day you'll come home singing
on that day you'll be amazed
careful
always watching
ever waiting
until it's time to kill
fitting Harry's code is a heavy load
until it's time to...
and your sister
you so miss her
until it's time to...
one fine day you'll come home singing
on that day life will change

Doppler
The headlights are taking the moonlight away
Taillights fade and we’re the shade
We sit, besides leaning, and drifting away
Remaining still with lots to say
Flashlights are coming, coming from behind
We know we’ll soon be hearing sounds of sirens
For all we know there’s nothing wrong
Sky is clear, at least all lights are on
For all we know there’s nothing wrong
It’s just....
The fact I’m not saying what needs to be said
The sirens’ call of things ahead
The sounds they’ll be shifting our thoughts out of tune
We’ll see false light beneath the moon
Flashlights surround us, all the sirens sound
No use in hiding the things that we’ve found
For all we know there’s nothing wrong
Sky is clear, at least all lights are on
For all we know there’s nothing wrong
At all...

No Vocabulary

No vocabulary
Look at you, look at you,
look at you now, your face all torn
with deep frustration & worn out
with a feeling no one understands what you’re saying
and this feeling isn’t that absurd at all
Looking for words
but they’re not there, they’re not there yet
Sounds that you’ve heard
still don’t mean anything
No vocabulary
Just you wait
There’s so much, there’s so much
there’s so much sounds that mean something
but the meaning still don’t make bells ring
You moan, you cry, you even start to sing
The thoughts you have they still remain within
It’s not that, it’s not this
it’s just the things you need to say
and this feeling you’re so close to speech
the lips & tongue & cheeks you try to teach
to say the words that still are out of reach
Look at you, look at you,
look at you now, your first word born
from a fully raging inner storm
A feeling you’ve created a new world
and this feeling isn’t that absurd at all
Looking for words
I think that you’re getting there yeah
Sounds that I’ve heard
really start to mean something
Your vocabulary
grows & grows & grows

Our World
Thinking of Seven
thinking of time
thinking of freedom
and our world's not always right
And now the future has turned to past
and things have changed a lot
and our world's not always right
We will try to disappear, again
the end is ever so near, here.

A Place Of Your Own
02:55
|

Walking the streets of Manchester town
There's not much else to do
Staying at home or just strolling around
Will you ever get through?
There in your head is a place of your own
All silent and still
There in your head where no one else can go
And nobody knows
Writing all day in your room at the house
Dreaming of a different life
Then at the door a big quiff arrives
Will you ever get through?
And all the stories you will tell
And all the people you will help
And make it easier for us

Happy days for your kind
Flip time & rewind
With an air of literacy
But you don’t fool me
Arrogant and a mess
Misogynous caress
You tread
But you don’t dare walking the steps unheard of
All the time just selling lies
The wolf here shows no disguise
Now it’s time to hold back
Or you’ll be risking your neck
The coward’s choice is on you
Just think this one through
Arrogant and a mess
Misogynous caress
You tread
But you don’t dare walking the steps unheard of
All the time just selling lies
The wolf here shows no disguise
There is not much to say
Just throw this job away
Everything will be clear
When you try this my dear
Arrogant and a mess
Misogynous caress
You tread
But you don’t dare walking the steps unheard of
All the time just selling lies
The wolf here shows no disguise
