Nowhere Nearer

Do ya feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, do ya?
And your knees will break if you get that bit older, older / wiser?
Spirits guiding you so solely, is a message you will hold me.
Is it what I want this morning? Daylight comes to save me…
Just below the earth you walk on, earthly pleasures they desert you.
Seams of bone and bloody mucus, stitch together tuneful lies!
Coming here was my big error, my mistake and around your finger,
I am tied and nowhere nearer, waiting for the sun to, shine…
Stay close, never depart… We came close, always apart…
The day knows, the morning is start, the day drags, and everyone knows…
Stay close never depart… We came close but always apart…
Stay close and never depart… We came close but always apart…
Nearer, nearer, nearer, nearer, oh so closer, nowhere nearer…

Here in dreamland, we walk around, head in hands…
The dreams will have to wait,
In the eyes that watch, this empty space, ahead…
The faults of each crime,
Are the endings of, intentions that were right.
Lose the smile deep inside and the urgency to make it right,
I see,
A beam to home,
But in my disguise.
I’ll feel alone,
But that’s where I find...
Saw the water rise, is there anyone nearby?
Joking aside, it’s a river wide,
I’m petrified!
I have,
A need to phone,
Through the telephone lines…
A beam to home,
But that’s where I find…

Left on the Wayside

Too afraid of each and all,
And too outspoken for a talk.
A hit, a miss, a falling short,
Healing is time, will it break the fall?
Through waves one hundred feet tall,
You’re too far gone for losing your mind.
A hiss, a spit, a grit – teeth jaw,
Cages of anger you try to hide,
Under this tide, pain is in sight…
1! 2! 3! 4!
Don’t go marching in there, head bowed under your hair,
Stoop to the level you know best, will you ever be safe?
Test all the patience in you, we’ll do the worst that we can do,
And deliver our souls to, all the people in there,
Who are left on the way – side!
Their smiles atop of a shit pile!
Stuck deep so they can’t get off it!
Who’s to say we told them so!?
These blues came and tainted my soul,
my soul drained, it painted me blue,
And in you, I saw my own face,
Looking back with resentment!
Pot – shots, in the dark,
The dark is light now for its eyes.
Catch it now or lose the spark,
Hunting around for the right time…
Silence you know, will find,
A way to your tortured soul, should it call!
Without any answers! With doubt in the answers!
Just go marching in there, head cut off from your neck,
Dropped to the floor, you still know best, will you ever escape?
Vent all the hatred in you, we’ll see the sees and see them through,
And deliver our heads to, all the people in there,
Who are left on the way – side! Their smiles atop of a shit pile!
Stuck deep so they can’t get off it!
Who’s to say we told them so!?
Told them so!
Told them so!

Just because you’re strong, (it) doesn’t mean you won’t fall…
There’s aching in your bones, though you feel you’re newborn…
Something you say, has got in your head,
You treat it as some, immediate threat.
The bedsores will come as you watch the day,
They’ll all come along and with you they’ll stay…
(Will, they dumb, it down, for you?
Will, they come, around for you?
Will, they fuck, it up for you?
Will, they make, it taste, that little bit better?)
You look like you’re climbing the walls in your state today,
No-one likes it, it scares me to sleep and it keeps me awake…
Absent you are…
We’d hate to leave you like this.
The chances are that we probably will…
Just because you’re old, (it) doesn’t mean you can talk…
There’s a fire inside your heart, but your heart is inside…
