You said there were a million ways to get out of here
So get out of here
Cos I’ve been following you down the wrong tracks
Through the cracks
Around the back
Around the back of your neck
Where your long dark hair flows
Around the back of your neck
Where his fingers close
Now people are starting to talk
Words are creeping out from the shadows
People are starting to talk
Whispers dangle from branches
There’s a picture hanging above
A bed in an empty house
Where we once said those words
That didn’t bring us any luck
After all

Eye for an Eye

Tonight the ships are resting in the bay
Telling us bad weather’s on the way
Blinking lights where the sea meets the sky
As far as the eye can see
And if the life guard worked nights
She would rescue me
You never did have an eye
For seeing where things lie
And you never did see me
We flow with the estuary down to the sea
It goes in through the mouth
No, out actually
Once propelled in forward motion
Deep into the Atlantic Ocean
There are more grains of sand
In my beer
Than 2ps in the machines on the pier
An ice cream drips and fifty seagulls appear
And there are more grains of sand now in my beer
But we’re no safer now than we were before
You never did have an eye
For letting things lie
And you never did let me

Downtown Heart

Some things are better left unsaid
93% of what’s in your head
Some things are better left unsaid
And some people are better left undead
But not you, not me...
Cos I’m a Friday night vampire and a Saturday zombie
Not you, or me...
From the belly to the cemetery
My downtown heart just keeps falling apart
Keeps falling apart downtown
