The Wilds
01:52

The wilds come
and you are never leaving them
The wilds come
like you're not even feeling them
From eastward, tops of power stations
the planes keep falling out of space and
this tiny room's the perfect place
to
ride the wilds 'til nothing hurts
The wilds come
and nobody is missing them
The wilds come
and only I am listening

Three Miler
01:57
|

|
It's not the trainers
It's not the give way sign
It's not forgetting
that these are not my lines
It's held together
by string and chewing gum
it isn't anywhere near my idea of fun
Three miles out
Run back
Run in
Run out
It's not the bridges
it's not the flooded road
It's never getting out my stupid little throat

Feather Head
03:02
|

|
Give me an in
a strike about the chin
Scored on one side
no beauty in this eye
Dark on the drive
key in the door
Mirror on the slide
it's all been said before
Feather Head
passing out again
Burn the wrist
lashing out again
If I begin
strike about the chin
Side along the score
whatever worked before

Light Horizon
02:32
|
|||
|
Leave me to the glory of
the cracked concrete euphoria
I love the hiss of the boiling sun
on the light horizon
Oh there you go
lying on the duvet with the sun at your throat
So let me show
the outside in
the outside in
I could mark my years this way
vapour trail rivers come wash me away
Break the window, I will run
to the light horizon

Ghost Walk
04:41

Precious step off the country road
I held my head and the seconds flowed
The operation of a one way smile
A party so good you could run a mile
I had a touch of the Romeos
and this is not my first rodeo
The quick seduction of a one way smile
I'm looking so good you should run a mile
Caught up to me
Caught up to me
and now I know
this isn't happening to me
Caught up to me
(the light is blinding)
Caught up to me
(the light will show...)
and now I know
this isn't happening to me
Keep in step on the city road
I hold my head and the traffic flows
The operation of a one way smile
A crowded heart that should be paid by the mile
I had a touch of the Romeos
and this is not my last rodeo
The quick seduction of a one way smile
I'm looking so lost you should run a mile

Rob Britton London, UK
Just can't stop making albums, it seems! I am also in Luxembourg, Menaces, Laverne and Keith Top of the Pops and his Minor UK Indie Celebrity All-Star Backing Band, so go and look at their pages. They're good!
