Dark Nevada Dream

Breathing hard
Breathing fast
Slowing down
You're slowing down

Speaking less
Drinking more
Leaving mess
On the floor

Looking lost -
The threshold crossed

Dark nevada
Dark nevada dream
Easy bruising, soundless screams
Dark nevada dream

Magpies drift
From your mind
Only colours
Left behind

Meaningless
Meaning less

Dark nevada
Dark nevada dream
Hazy mornings, tangled themes
Dark nevada dream

Written out

Written out
You're left

Written out
You're left
With nothing to say

So sensitive
And hard as nails
A cut above
An epic fail

So sensitive
And hard as nails
Mid-life, ex-wife
Disconnected
Dull mind, unkind
Disaffected

Cold heart, weak art
Slick pretences
Old words unheard
Quick defences

So sensitive
And hard as nails

Dark nevada
Dark nevada dream

Feel the urge
Lose the urge
Moments merge
Emotions surge

The moments merge
Who are you now?
