Running, jumping, pushing its way
Mornings nighttime blends into day Can't find curtains to shut it away We were alone in the hills of the night Now the neon dawn lets in the light And the milkman that nobody knows Leaves bottles of tears At the house full of laughter Nobody ever hears O the grass is burned black By the ships coming back from the stars, golden stars Seas turned to steam When we boiled the dream of tomorrow, tomorrow When it gets light Some of them always stay She's dressed in white Till the smoke turns her grey Falling, stumbling, feeling its way Mornings nighttime moves into day Can't find warmth to keep it away Used to be alone on the waves of cloud Now the flotsam dawn brings in the crowd And the angel who sits in her car Full of desire But the hoses who came from the town Put out her fire O the seas have run dry And the sun's one good eye is too blind to see Sky has gone bad From the good times we had burning bright, such good times When it gets light Some of them always stay She's dressed in white Till the smoke turns her grey |

Keep it down
If it's still hangin' around Kept away Well it's lost inside a day On the journey through the street To the corner you have to meet Keep keepin' it down If it's hangin' around In the dawn When the last drop it has gone Summer leaves From the hill where my love grieves In the sun where you met her In the shade where you left her Keep keepin' it down If it's hangin' around You've got to keep it down And never let it go to the top 'Cause you know that if it does The roundabout is nevver gonna stop, never gonna stop In the night There's a space replaces your face That you lent I don't know just how it went Though the trains have passed it by It still sits up in your sky Keep keepin' it down If it's hangin' around Yeah... Keep it down... keep it down... keep it down... |

Pieces of mind
See how they ran Prizes of sun Still to be won When the life is made of straw Can you tell me what it's for Waves that pound against the door Leave me at the place of/throw it away/throw it away Leave it today/ Keep me dancing stop me grasping Clouds that turn to dust on touching Times I'm so far from/What I want So much the same Living in games Pieces of cake Until they break apart They say the plane that comes to pass never rhymes Now it burns on grass too steep to climb Best of friends Until the flowers end Mines have taken their place Darkness in their face Now the golden coach is here Can you cure me of the fear Should I move into the clear Find a time in which I/throw it away/get out today Keep me singing stop me clutching Rooms that turn to dust on touching Times I'm so far from/What I want Merry-go-round In a town without a sound Wings for hire From the church with no choir The burning ship is sailing It will not leave without me ? /Throw it away/get out today/ Get out today/ ? Keep me singing stop me clutching Rooms that turn to dust on leaving Times I'm so far from/What I want Merry-go-round In a town without a sound Wings for hire From the church with no choir The burning ship is sailing It will not leave without me The stocks of fire unfailing Won't set me free There goes the price of drowning So I must swim to the end Each day the head needs crowning To much to mend... |

The smiles on city windows,
It's only the weekly cleaner The dials on all the faces Are gradually getting nearer So make it careful when you can Forget it if you've read the plan Call a friend when you're in doubt Nights are hard when you're locked out Grins painted on radiators Are only the teeth of laughter The numbers of all the victories Are stenciled on soon after So don't regret the leaves that fall Have a little have it all Take a bit give just as much Nights are hard without the touch/crutch The smiling suburban collars They power the city's cisterns Whenever they pull the trainchain/They gradually start the pistons So keep your hair on if you can When you're living in a van Call a friend when you're in doubt Nights are hoarse when you're locked out Grins painted on petrol tigers Are only the tanks of porter Statistics of all the campaigns Are written down on water So don't regret the cars that rust Everything must turn to dust Cultivate and dig your croft Nights are hard when you've gone soft Lovers in the dark Murders in the park By the silver moon Blankets from the fear Cars when roads are near Winter's much too soon |
