There is no lying between us, only secrets and silence
And if you feel exactly what it is, maybe it's for the best
And dude - I don't want no trouble, I'm merely asking you a question
And if you had the courtesy maybe you'd try to listen
And I breathe in slow-motion, it's like a vacuum - silence - amongst this commotion
And I craft some perfect words - lap off the tongue - like waves in this velvet ocean
And your lips are a jagged dagger, and your ragged swagger decelerates and demotivates as your heart slowly turns to rust.
Experience loss of feeling - but it's only just.
And I don't think that you will -
I just worry that you might.
And I know that you do -
but what can I?

It's over man, it's over
You turned your back, the sky turned black -
You were my lover.

She rises above my city
- swathed in a cloud shroud,
between the Concrete towers
- with their claims to power
- jagged crooks amidst a jungle of pitiful souls
a zig-zag haze cuts across her face -
partially obscured and faded through
but she doesn't faze me: i know the way
She plays You -
Hook and line She reels you in - but i refuse to sink
brought me to the Brink but i will never Sink
She raised her golden head - She says No more follow - fade away.

embrace me
keep quite still and taste the way the air around us places itself
immerse me
pull me down and drown me, hold me til you've found me between your murky muddy mind
you cut a lonely figure and pull the pieces apart
tear out the tears from under your skin and see that this face has changed
heave up brooding thoughts from the depths of your existence - haul em out and spit em out - contradict your old resistance to those long dead promises
time will erode you from me
so i hope that you'll be happy - you looked so happy being miserable
you cut a lonely figure and pull the pieces apart
tear out the tears from beneath your skin and see that this face has changed
