The Hankering

Merry or damn sufficient
Tick the box and just pretend
Shake your heads, are you there yet
Carry on, no one will stare
Bending over backwards
Merry or damn sufficient
Tick the box and just pretend
Never ask, wait it's too late
The hankering again, I fear
Bending over backwards
Over it, I'm over it
Tick the box and just pretend
Take a breath
Your leap of faith

Naked Ground

I love your murderous hands
The power of welding wires
The oil / the dirt / the smoke
When home is far and long long gone
The earth stands tall
The earth stands tall
On my brain / On your brain
I will not walk to the ship
I will cut your beard with my teeth
And I will drag you to this town
On the naked ground
On the naked ground
It’s the mad squirrel in the sky
It’s the carriage of your mouth
The love making on your floor
The skyscraper’s so HIGH
The skyscraper’s so HIGH
The jolly dance of hours
The supernatural light
The oil the dirt the smoke
The red valleys before us
The horses the horses are asleep
It’s the life we will never live
I will not walk to the ship
I will cut your beard with my teeth
And I will drag you to this town
On the naked ground
On the naked ground

Missing Heart

The dead earth spreads before us
On our way back to the ranch
The road will never stop
It's been so long since I last saw you
Your ginger beard and your cigar breath
That I will never smell again
This was the place you couldn’t touch
This is where I draw the line
This is where the road stops
I truly thought that you were the one
That could be trusted with all that I have ever loved
That’s not your understanding of trust
Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes
With your missing head and your missing teeth and your missing heart
Aren’t you a sight for sore eyes
With your missing head and your missing teeth and your missing heart
It’s three and church bells ring away
What a dirty mess in your house
« Let’s be creative ! » I thought
You didn’t see it coming innit, boy
Didn’t see yourself underground before
Before the time was ripe
You thought this place was yours to touch
But this is where I draw the line and here’s
The change for your dirty mind
Who would have thought that you’d be the one
At the top of my to do in list right before dawn
For a slightly different vision of trust

Hurricane

When we met
You tamed yourself for me
Just enough
That I may huddle close
Right round, right round
I've come to see how you are
And I've come
And I've come
To nurse
Your silent urge
To keep myself by its heat
To keep myslef by its heat
To keep myself by its heat
To keep myself by its heat
And in an instant I'd be gone
And in an instant I'd be gone
So thank you
For reminding me, that
Behind the eddies of your eyes lies
The swollen undulating crush of the sea
So darling
Tust before you burry me beneath your earth
Because I know you're holding back the hurricane
