someone asked for the round & round lyrics, so here you are y’all:
you send a fresh cast of characters born
from the tips of your fingers that then calmly walk
along a tightrope as invisible as it is taut
that struggles between my room and yours
-
and i built a tongue that could speak
in someone else’s mouth while i left mine in my cheek
and the words were neither too bright or too bleak
but they were true because i knew that they would never be coming back to me
-
and one day
you and i will go round and round
a mess of
cartoon limbs in a grey dust cloud
and when it settles down
you may have found me out
that’s OK it hasn’t happened for quite a long time now
-
i am no whistleblower but
i’ve seen the whites of your eyes the inside of your clubs
i’ve seen you at worship and in love
but it wasn’t for me i am yet to find my own gods
-
and one day
you and i will go round and round
a mess of
cartoon limbs in a grey dust cloud
and when it settles down
you may have found me out
that’s OK it hasn’t happened for quite a long time now
-
trying to live a lowercase/uppercase life, walking home with my hands by my sides
-
and one day
you and i will go round and round
a mess of
cartoon limbs in a grey dust cloud
and when it settles down
you may have found me out
that’s OK it hasn’t happened for quite a long time now
