Sunset glowing on the mountain
Hour is late but no one's counting
Eat our tea out of a round tin
Look out baby, we've gone campin'
Wake up waiting for the sunrise
Tartan blanket on our cold thighs
Canvas creaking on some loose guys
Campfire smoke will sting in both eyes
Darling, where's the lighter?
I can't find the matches
Cooking on a gas stove
Washing in the river
We're home here in the wild
We lay our heads on stone
And share our sunburn smiles

Dreamless

We are gonna fly in the fallen sky
We're circling the light in a dreamless high
We are gonna glide when our wings grow tired
We're floating through the night on a dreamless tide
We're gonna fly on down
When circumstance allows
We're gonna circle round
In a search for higher ground

Memory Stopping Me

You're obscene
You're obscene, will you stop chasing me?
It's time you realised these words you're saying come with a fat price that you're not paying
It's not my scene
It's not my scene, this isn't consequence-free
I can't breathe
I can't breathe my memory's stopping me
You don't care
You don't care and that's plain to see
It's time you realised these words you're saying come with a fat price that you're not paying
Fear surrounds
Fear surrounds and we stop feeling free
Love abounds
Love abounds when you stop feeling free
You're obscene
You're obscene, will you stop chasing me?
It's time you realised these words you're saying come with a fat price that you're not paying
It's not my scene
No, it's not my scene, this isn't consequence-free
I can't breathe
I can't breathe my memory's stopping me
I can't breathe
I can't breathe my memory's stopping me

Polystyrene

Into a polystyrene container on a bench
You threw up all the bile you were trying not to vent
Held onto iron railings and the history they wrought
They drew up from the vial and they stuck it in your heart
They put you on a table in a basement cold and bare
They confiscate your contraband and cut off all your hair
The crack across the ceiling, failing plaster black with mould
No prospect you'll be leaving 'til your body's grey and cold
