Swim - Linoleum
She said, come swim with me They say, still waters run deep Today finds me asleep I pray, bring me peace She laid soft by my side Afraid, closed my eyes It’s cold outside In here, together we’ll hide
There’s a girl who laughs all day She whiles the night away with strangers This girl’s got everything Which she gives away and wonders where it’s gone Why she feels wrong And how much longer, she says Will I feel this way Shine brightly but fade Look around you Take care Look around you Be […]
Blinded, I walk into your light Look around corners Watching in silence As you catch your reflection Your lips curl with mine Missing, I forgot you had nothing to lose In spite of the wrong night It’s cold in my room As you catch your reflection Your lips curl with mine As you give into […]
Why is it my mind won’t behave Today when I’m alright Four nights I slept I held you up to the light To find things you hide Why is it that I end up here Again looking downwards You claim to understand Don’t hold me up to the light There’s things I need to Hide […]

He wakes up Sha- sha- shaking With half a tooth missing Lifts his head feels the aftermath kick in Last night he was shining And so entertaining Today he is tired and wasted and grey And each time he says he won’t do it again His head is a rhythm And muscles start twitching As […]
She says Why don’t you let me take you home He’s bored And doesn’t want to sleep alone She’d like another drink And he’s blinded by her clothes They sit In darkened corners everywhere She’s sick He seems completely unaware He’s spent too long Going nowhere He waits round for things to try She knows […]
Why can’t you see those hands are cold are grey When her imperfections hide away And in the half-light you can Barely see that face Maybe it’s better that way As you fall into waiting arms That loosen their embrace Finding comfort in restriction Eternally replace Why don’t you know what’s going on here The […]
