Black and Blue

You must have a lot to say
What good does it do you anyway
Don't come across
Screaming like your mind has lost its way

It's another sunny day
The white-hot light
The lights from the feelings
Burn a hole into your arm

And the birds fly in and make themselves at home
But you never forget their tune
A migratory tune
And you go with them wherever they roam
So weary and alone

My brain is black and blue
Burnt out from dodging all the stones you through
My feet are set in glue
Asleep from falling through the wreckage of this town we once knew

But I won't let you down
You'll be standing right beside me when our ship touches ground
And you can't tell by the sea
A few more times round the Sun and it's history
