Alive A Bird 06:19
If only birds could still distract me From entertaining the possibility Their grand arcs beyond art's feat Deep down dipping delving unreachable A draught of vintage is what I need From trying to think just to think just to find Something else than the trace of you Than the sin The skies grow dark behind their wings Maybe the night shall be my mumbling muse A candle in the darkness as profound As the black flitting across white clouds I feel the sea swell when I breathe From trying to think just to think just to find Something more than the trace of you Come here my dark side

Oh Celia 07:42
A note to self: don't be so selfish Don't let your mind wander too far But my advice is still to pray Just think of it as natural As long as you don't let her trip As you take her hand and lead her away Despite distress distaste misplaced This time this infinite behind Despite this face dismay debased This crime this little bit on the side Oh Celia don't make me feel guilty Fate feels so heavyhanded Whipped by my hips and led away Can't help but see you as it Contradiction mystery a vivid grey If it be not now tis yet to come Really seems like you're the chosen one Cos in my head it's already happened You're timeless and formless like an idea But I promise it's you that I'm after It's you I worship, it's you I fear If it be not now tis yet to come Grant me delusion, I'll take your love

Held down whole by a pin to the soul A little death not worth it at all To sleep in linen laced with my faults For I am the language And you are the words And I am the sun And you are the earth Well, I'm a bit beside myself Can't deny I'm not that well Feel like I'm mechanical Cogs and gears jammed in my head For I am the line And you are the point And I am the angle And you are the joint

Autumn 02:54
It's so cold Breath turns crystalline So I take a walk outside And I see five men there eating stones While they sit on giant white bread rolls Even still I'm empty inside Still desiring something more And I feel like jumping in the sea At home I'll be with all the sinners Let me think for a moment...

Footprints 05:29
[instrumental, with apologies to wayne shorter]

L'Avventura 06:42
[instrumental] By the way, you should probably watch Michelangelo Antonioni's 'L'Avventura'.

Plastic 07:56
Sorry about what came before I'm just working something out Never one to miss a trick Or a chance to mess about Oh it's so hard to be a liar Looking the likes of you in the face 'You make me happy yes you do You're impossible to replace' You can't admit it, but you're a mannequin just like me A double intender, a mask on a mask on a mask on a mask, no anxiety Born from plastic in a mould Too little sugar, too much spice A soul so wayward it awakes When you try to veto vice A heart so candid it creates New truths each day to pay the price I'm like a dog tied to a stick leaping for balls I cannot reach I'm like a fool who runs and runs in lakes of fire to scratch an itch And I'm so plastic and you're so plastic And I'm so fake and you're so fake And I'm so plastic and you're so plastic And I'm so fake and you're so fake

Bedwarmth 02:33
Under my duvet As the deluge rages on Despite this, I'm hearing The call of little birds along The line of trees Tapping my window In a dawn chorus But I don't think I'm awakening It's like my thoughts are sinking Into my chest as I feel the guilt Think that I will hold on Just hold on Just for now I think I still love you I miss the bedwarmth you bring to me This room is the winter And our bodies are frozen harbours I hope you set navies Coursing down my ice-blue veins I've tried everything The birds and the spring do nothing It's like the room is smiling All blissful in its ignorance Think that I will hold on Just hold on Just for now
