"Clouds of People" Lyrics
play me down
I thought was safe to wake your soul
say no more
I don't understand, were you just bored
cause you don't crawl like I do
like all these people do
they do
oh how did you
hide away to come back home
stay for good
I don't care why, perhaps you should
oh you don't crawl like I do
like all these people do
I got that picture you never gave to me
twisted branches, a seashell crushed in the street
dead birds don't fly
dead birds don't fly
black hole harbor
a violet horizon gleams
see no sunlight, but if I'm right, I'm not here to make peace
no you don't know
no you don't know
now would be a good time to be awake
now would be a good time to be awake
now would be a good time
now would be a good time to be away
away
ship is sinking, but I am sailing above
every word, every day, everything that crossed my mind
so I don't hear the music
you move time and space
so I don't bear the burden
of being ok
now would be a good time to be awake
now would be a good time to be awake
now would be a good time
now would be a good time to be away
get around by the thread of a cheap thrill
it cost too much to play with you
for a smile and a side of sweet eyes
it's not enough to light the tomb
oh yeah
I still don't believe that love
is everything we live for
I still don't believe that love
is everything we live for
in the time that it takes to say anything
the leaves have gone from green to red
memories stick in me like a dartboard
I dare you to come back again
oh yeah
I still don't believe that love
is everything we live for
I still don't believe that love
is everything we live for
did you ever need a back door
to slip into the air
I wouldn't die for anyone
I'm hard pressed just to care
it's a hot cold ride when the clock is spinning
put the pedal to the metal it's a race worth winning
well it's long dark walk then the lights go on
see the left foot's in the game but the right is gone
oh let it roll let it roll let it roll right down your finger
I don't suppose one would know why my head still lingers
it's the go go go of all lies
it's the go go go of real life
and I'm really not far above it
it's the go go go of all time
so you've made it with an eye for another big year
send the letter back to school cause the coast is clear
well nothing's wrong nothing's wrong nothing's quite right either
I don't suppose one would know why I just can't be here
it's the go go go of all lies
it's the go go go of real life
and I'm really not far above it
it's the go go go of all time
and I'm really not far above it
in fact I've got a full house to spare
then again I don't have forever
no no no
it's the go go go of all lies
it's the go go go of real life
and I'm really not far above it
it's the go go go of all time
late last night
I thought of you driving
you were right there beside me
and the road was a drug
summer came
the sea was shining
the sky took you flying
but it's lonely above
let me carry you and
hang on
we're not on this earth too long
hang on
we're not on this earth too long
and when the line
is too dark to fathom
oh you can imagine
we're out of our minds
don't drain your life
I know you can find me
I'm right here inside you
all over your thoughts
let me carry you and
hang on
we're not on this earth too long
hang on
we're not on this earth too long
Double A side Lyrics
sentimental you're a bird on a chain
sentimental let me spell it all out
it's the same dead horse you've been kicking on
sentimental and no fire to feed
sentimental and no sign of a change
it's the same damn dope you've been living on
if the shoe don't fit
try the other foot
ain't no particular side
to embrace or deny
you gotta giddy up
to get down to the itching
cut it out, don't have a cow
and release it
cut it out, have a cow
and release it
if the shoe don't fit
try the other foot
ain't no particular side
to embrace or deny
you gotta giddy up
to get down to the itching
round the bend
beyond the blues
another song and it all rings true
between the eyes
above the wire
I know the scent
but there's something new
a million things around me
turn around around me
a million things around me
get on in
take a crack
take it now
cause it won't come back
a little room
to make a move
I know the number
but I can't get through
a million things around me
turn around around me
a million things around me
can you hear the whispering dandelion
and the chaos drifting in your mind
is there dancing in the light of your direction
can you hear the whispering dandelion
