On The Road
VERSE 1
if I was gonna be here forever
we’d sit down in this field together
together, together
we’d lay here in watch the weather
it would pass gentle over the heather
o over the heather
purple pastures what could be better
rings of light on the wet paths things feel headier
after dark x3
CHORUS
I’ve always been better off alone
keep travelling on the way to home
I never wanted to be anywhere
keep makin’ my way
somewhere
just makin’ my way
somewhere x3
just makin’ my way
VERSE 2
pull the curtains back
I wanna look out the window
did ya see that
a woman tappin’ her toe
she’s impatient to go
think I’ll miss the train
that’ll take me back
watch the moon wane
but my resolve will stay in tact
I’m impatient to stay right here
and stay so still
CHORUS

The Dock
A
I stood at the quay
waiting for you to set sail, my way
waiting as you left the dock
waiting for you to turn your head
steering my eyes from the clock
ooh
once more and nod
hurt me, burn me with them wound me
a look thrown over your shoulder
anything
if only, only for your eyes to meet mine
make the lines sing
over the distance
only a hard profile he gave
my gaze met resistance
against the crashing waves
B
waiting at the door
any little sound
In a prison cell
buried under ground
I was locked away
for something that was never found
I can see your feet
dips in the light beneath
There’s a blue shoe box under my bed
where I keep a needle and a thread
(A)
Waiting as you left the dock
A
He’s unspooling me now
you can’t take very much more
I’m as thin as a paper bird
under a drip
she’s sharp
so as to sew me shut
when you say that you miss me
ooh
tighten the locks/knots
give me reasons
to be believe in/ to be leaving
footsteps heard down the corridor
let me think
just tell me, tell me
why you left without saying a thing
woke up one morning
I was left crying on the shore
the shoals kept on grazing
amidst the crashing waves

In The Lap of Time
In the lap of time
We are seated high
In the nick of time
I will learn to fly
Before we fall
and break our backs
Before we lose it all
