Take your shoes off

1, 2, 3, 4

5am raid

(Sunrise due)

Makes a disco 
of my living room (x1)

Exhaling tension 

Front door swings

Needles as common 
as lilies in spring  (x1)

I hear the freedom in this town 
It's electricity that dies. (riff)

Glass eye white
Smile too thin
Offers me a flight
from the scaffolding (x1)

Forensic teams 
Keep trade afloat
Many of us cannot stay afloat 

 (x1)

I hear the freedom in this town 
It's electricity that dies.(riff)

The MP states the people here for a free ride...
(riff)

On a washed up beach in winter.
They wanted to die.

(riff)

My home is a fearless place, 

no revolution with a razor blade (with a razor blade.)

Just a small explosion at the corner of my mouth 

am happy to have time in or out.

Forgiveness on a loop

Area drained
Voice breaking
Graveyard eyes
are never waking
Forgiveness on a loop
Forgiveness helter skelter
Stranger to the mirror
passing like a commuter
Roll over - tomorrow.
There's always tomorrow.

I'd Never Move

The salt from my eyes you bathed in for years, 
Gave you life, gave you a signal to tune in to. 
When Sunday opened it’s legs to Monday far too easily, 
I’d never move. I'd never move.

There were never many stills of us 
making the most of the passing hours - 
My memory couldn't focus, from the station blank, still can't.
By the time it does I realise that every memory passed 
was the greatest work of fiction (based loosely on us.)

Mass produced wallpaper

The Hotel GM who turned the kitchen blue
The Assistant who cut my days from 5 to 2
The Head Honcho who gave a panic attack a fine
The Foreman who tried to slap me in to shape.

All of these trapped in a system
All of these with just one rag to read
All of these with mass produced wallpaper to hang
