Trick of the Light
Its a trick of the light, your the only one who sees it
and your eyes they adjust, and you start to find your way
with a drink in your and and a crooked smile on your face
the room starts to move, so you hold on for dear life
Your eyes are peeled your all alone
the moon gives way to the sun
you see yourself from up above
your skeletal figure looks up
And there's just one message for you
but its so hard to hold onto
almost had it in your hands
until you sink low, low, low, low.....
So you've been up all night, you only want to tell her
but your mind has gone blank, and your stabbing in the dark
You inwardly dance, you hold yourself tight
but your unravelling now, and your back into a flight
Your soaring high into the sky
you watch yourself until your out of sight
until everything is miniscule
until your suddenly back where you begun
Take take take, your in and out of this state
You just take take take, and beat time at its own game
Take take take until you feel an embrace
You wanna take take take, until you taste life
Herein, here out.
Your deep in your hole, nothing is as you know
sinking faster and faster until you lose control
and your enjoying the ride, your in overdrive
at the same time as being on override
and you master your senses, without being calm and collected
you master your senses, the K hole love affair is born..

Cat Song
I often wondered what it would have been like
I often wonder just what might have been
To up and leave when we were just sixteen
My curiosity gets the better of me..
Young boy, wide eyed, heading for the bright lights
and your imagination runs away with itself
Closed off, still find strangeness in a stranger
Until your prized open, blank canvass to a masterpeice..
Any you see the signs, but still cant cant decide
and your wondering why, its like the heart is blind
but you carry on boy, until you become
a man who wonders from time to time;
About a life that he will never lead
and its a life that you will never leave
and its a life that you can never go back to, even if you want to.
Put your hand into the hat of infinity
pull out your own reality
but what decides that its the one that you grasp?
what if i'd used my other hand?
Destiny the ever changing entity
we persue the spirit and every time we get close
it slips through our fingers disappears into a puff of smoke
until we finally realise, that it is your own..
Any you see the signs, but still cant cant decide
and your wondering why, its like the heart is blind
but you carry on boy, until you become
a man who wonders from time to time;
and it coincides with every twist and turn
that you didn't take, its so fragile it breaks
but there's no regrets, and its so delicate
that you cant help but reflect;
About a life that we will never leave
a retrospective curiosity
become a figment of your own imagination..
If you don't know here your going any road will take you there.

Swallowing Swords
Just because I think different
and I don't want to be part of your scene
and I wont subscribe to your fashion army
where your hair and clothes become a uniform
You can count me out
Hey! Was it something I said?
And its like a cold war, fought with your nose in the air.
Its like swallowing swords when you kiss me
You'd tear me apart if you didn't need me
Fist in the air and you don't even know why
so what happens when there's nothing left to fight?
(your expression of freedom has become a prison,
contrived and twisted it starts to burn and blister,
until it becomes another flag for the new radicals to burn.
Elitist!)

Slight of Hand
Its like the whole world, revolves inside my skull
the universe, all inside this tiny room
and i'm knee deep, in questions I don't understand
vicious circle, cynical cycle never ends
Is it right? Is it wrong?
It's just another slip of the tongue
and your thoughts, they perform
a perfect parody of what you know
and its just a slight of hand
This misdirection, this self perpetuating pantomime
chatters and whispers, keeping me all mis-aligned
and those cut up pictures, of scenarios I might have known
inside the theatre of my skull, a sea of tears drowns the blind
Slight of hand, it's all imaginary
Slight of hand, a slip of the tongue if you will.
Help me out, or help me in. I'm both performer and audience
Either tie me down, or set me free, but don't clip my wings like this
and it's a battleground in the theatre of my skull, both performer and audience
and no one ever wins, no matter how long it lasts
until we climax, and be reborn.
