Comfort Fence

Wherever we go we're still below and wallowing in mud
All our lives we're fed on lies from Santa Claus to God
Still the gloom won't find a room within our pulsing hearts
Watching you and all you do just playing out your parts
But as we rise we won't sympathise
as our focused eyes circle round to you
We won't breathe, we won't ever leave
because we still believe in what we do
Kill the lights and sleep a while
let’s dream ourselves back home
Where nothings strange and nothing’s changed
a city set in stone
Turn the pages of the ages, settle down in time
Wake and then thank Christ again for leaving us a line
And call the band, crushed and second hand
nothing like how we planned so long ago
Walk away from this mass parade,
pushed and plugged and played
and put out to show
Years erased the scene, the phase, the reason for it all
A comfort fence, at life’s expense, surrounds you 10 feet tall
Come with me, we'll go to see the building in the town
Where we once played the songs you made before they pulled it down.

sun alive bringing unknown colours
waking, I've been on another
Stay inside my bed til summer
talking to the walls, i'm better
Hey, I got caught for nothing
songs inside my head still singing
we're going to take it all away
we're going to break it all some day
Morning breaks and all is shaking
funny cakes that you've been making
for all our sakes take what it's taking
crush the fakes, reality waking
crack a smile at all the new kids
running wild turning towns to fluid
we're going to take it all the way
we're going to break 'cos all you pay in style
hey, my old time filler
somehow you became a killer
still the days now seem so pretty
but i wish to god that she was with me
now the thunderbolt is nearer
day of the revolt is closer
We're going to move it on some day
on and on and on some day
Morning breaks and all is shaking
funny cakes that you've been making
for all our sakes take what it's taking
crush the fakes, reality waking
crack a smile at all the new kids
running wild turning towns to fluid
we're going to take it all the way
we're going to break 'cos all you pay in style

Silver Screen

Silver Screen is sleeping now
beneath the grass and clover
Still the crowds can't make it out
the dream is over
You see them walk awhile and then huddle home
You see them talking, Silver to Chrome
Consequently I was there
watching from a window
Sending signs across the air
"Follow me where I go"
and turn around to catch the crowds walk away
and see them moving, too tired to stay
now every year the crowds still celebrate that night
They take a movie, and watch by candlelight.

Code name for your style
01:16

I want you in my life
I don’t want you in my life
Stick or twist on time?
Now your on my line
It’s starting to take me from where I won’t return
So why don’t you make me,
And we all can crash and burn
Twisting it inside
Then out to moralise
Code name for your style
On your princely pile
Your starting to take me where I don’t belong
So why don’t you make me?
I know what’s going on

Carly's Peak

Seems like yesterday up on Carly’s peak
eating warm crustaceans we caught in the creek
in your rusted car we drove to the lake
high up in the mountains so long ago I ache
River answer when I’m calling
as the daylight burns up the ground
don't take me down
The moonlight pierced the blind and fell upon your face
the nights were meant for sleeping but never round your place
waiting for the sun to break its cloudy cell
in all those shady places that i know so well
River move me when I’m stalling
as the evening falls all around
don't take me down
Well we split and left and I got home somehow
but do you ever wonder where we could be right now
I need some time alone just to break the chain
want to rub my name out and start again
River catch me when I'm falling
as the green fields turn muddy brown
don't take me down
