lyrics

There once was a reason that so sucked me in
To consider escape required potion or pin
Now what filled up the hole’s been consigned to the bin
With the last of the emperor’s clothing.
As clarity rose from the dust on the ground
Where your form had fell in a granular mound
I couldn’t retreat, even utter a sound, being covered in fear and foreboding.
Well some would say foolish and some would say wise
But you were the one who was wasting your time
But while you wasted yours you in turn wasted mine
And we set it adrift in the water.
The colour of language as dark as the night
The metaphors meaning as clear as the light
As I wondered in to your blinding delight
Like a lamb being led to the slaughter.
Well you ran from the ring and you ran from your home
You ran from your words, that indelible tome
What was once said in colour now reads monochrome
From the swell of an ego bursting.
The meditative preacher held in such regard
She told me I could only clean my own yard
And she gave me a coin and she signed off my card
Saying ‘son, you’re relieved of your thirsting ‘.
Now for every fable that sprang from your mind
I’d offer a truth from somewhere deep inside
But what do you see when you don’t know you’re blind?
A room in the ward is awaiting.
A curse on the dogs that just howl through the camp
As I write these words by the light of the lamp
And soon I’ll return to the cold and the damp
Of England’s wintry plating
