lyrics

And here I sit like a blue eyed crow. Spending my time in a house of long shadows.
A flock of birds practice for the fall. But I can’t see that coming at all.
In my oceanic state this sleepless sickness makes me wait.

Walking in a Volcano.

Driven by passions I don’t understand, falling into the purest hand.
Balanced between the obscene and the poised.
But I get caught and pulled into the noise.
Drums along the long read. We reduce issue to abstraction.
We throw books across the room and look for some reaction.
I can go from a sweet natured guy to a bastard cynic in a wink of an eye.
Birds shun the rocks and head for the trees.
I want the big bang but I fear where it leads me, where it leads me
