The Cavern

Well well
Your eyes well
Sink holes tell
A subterranean story
Chorus
She comes to me in dreams
Thanks must be to God it seems
For that's the only time that I
Can hold her in my arms
Someone could fall
And forever be lost
In the cavernous wastes
Where memories crawl
Chorus

(We Are) Ghosts
04:28

I ripped your heart from your chest
I watched it die
At least I had the decency
To stay, watch, cry
You said you thought
Together we'd grow old
I hadn't thought
I wasn't told
Campanile Hendaye
Once more unto the breach
Just outside of town
Just out of reach
Chorus
We are ghosts
Not so scary
A loveless life
A lifeless purgatory
We are ghosts
Yet more like clowns
Deep deep sadness
Stumbling around
You came back to the car
Picking the sore
I said we could work it out
We cried some more
Driving home A8
The road is clear
Oblique rays conflate
Distant and near
Open where you sat
The sewing box lies
Falling apart
No stitch in time
Chorus

Proudhon's Maxim
05:09
|

I wanted to possess
I wanted to own
But property is theft
Leaving me bereft
Alone
I wanted to possess
I wanted to own
But property is theft
And now there's nothing left
All gone

The sun up above
The mist down below
The river a vein
As if in a dream
The sea far beyond
Beckoning pale
A church bell peels
And a curtain falls
A chapter complete
With longings and wrongs
Subsides in the mist
So near and yet lost
The highway the ditch
Populated by ghosts
Wandering still
Murdered blood cold
Chorus
And now as here I sit
It's clear life is pain
Or avoiding it
And now as here I sit
It's clear life is pain
And reliving it
A deluge distracts
Brings back to life
The green hills protect
Invasions deflect leaving
A form of half peace
The sun's gentle warmth
Restoring of faith
Almost an embrace
Chorus
