Lyrics-Eyeless In Gaza
<Fabulous Library>
Slow Train
like a tidal wave
breaking over me now
brave face like a blast thru space
gazing over me now
changing the way I see you face
melting the chains that run the race
like a slow train
coming to stagger you like a slow train
taking you somewhere new
slow train like the heavy day
that breaks the sleeping suns sound
silver mesh that is cast your way timelessly
gliding down changing the way
I see your face melting the chains
that run the race
like a slow train flowing
to swallow you to carry you.
Fabulous Library
fabulous library
you're not getting me
you're counting me to be the next entry
that you fix on your page
you are writing me
in your impotent sorry schemes ah but I say
fabulous library your not getting me
page comes after page all labelled indexed
stamped and filed so neatly away
books of names and faces all the people
you've acquired are framed and all displayed
how you want me in the list of names
and victims that you claim for your list catches
for your list of conquests but you'll never get to
put my name fabulous library your not getting me.
As Far And Deep As Love
so far and deep as love
so filled by frightening touch
so alive with a waiting look
so far and deep as love
I've wished I was never this fearful
I've wished I was somewhere
you're arriving
I've wished I was closer to that centre
I've wished I was closer to your crying
so far and deep as love as grief
I've wished I was sublimination
I've wished I was power
over you its taken so much time
getting to here
fighting my way thru each passing year
do you know
what you do
do you care about me
people like you
don't hear don't see.
do you know what you do
would you care about me
people like you
can't hear can't see.
Be The Teacher
Be the teacher
show me completeness
Be the teacher
show me how you belong I know where
your living I watch where you go
and I'm always watching I see all
you've learned and done
Be the teacher
I'm reaching for a firmer place where I won't slip
and all down I feel afraid of what you know
but who climbs up and who steps down to help
you make the right moves what it like to feel
so pure take me there I'm reaching for
the heven place I'm love with no focus
I'm praise with no blame I'm emptied by
burdens I'm fixed and nailed to
no one place be the teacher.
Vivid(full-on)
ah you never thought I'd look so far away
you never thought I'd look so far
and your thinking and your saying
that you know me now
and your saying that you know me now
always watching always preying always bringing down
wanting to feel everything full-on
time at half speed keep me in a need hungry for all
that I see where everythings full-on
trying the water before swimming fearing
to fail holding on tight
to the rails feeling that everythings pale
but I crave the vivid worsening fears taking it
head on crashing around making the right sort of sounds
knowing that I'll hit the ground but still crave the vivid.
She Tries On The Jewel
emeralds to enrich her
to set her in stars light
they've all made to reach
her the mirror won't show
any jewels
her face isn't smiling
her look isn't kind
her cheek curves wryly ah the mirror won't show
a single jewel
and diamonds are wisdom
as clear as beauty is
as old as religion
her lashes don't cleanse her
her aura is blithe and bronze
all terrible splendour
ah the mirror don't show back any jewels.
Stone Smile
I trust your laughter your certain smiles
the surest tender your stone smile
joy and laughter sure as sky fast as gravity as solid as
rock as true as true can be and I trust your certainly
your sure belief your single mind I trust in your own light
and I trust implicity emphatically whole-heartedly
your trusts good for every which way.
Stormy Weather
Waken me I will waken you will you wake me
from this stormy weather I am sleeping deep and
I'm dreaming that we are still together crushing the hope
that was so strong placing things back where
they belong am I loosing you are
you loosing the friend you held forever watch us
melt away in the sun and rain in this wild weather
hoping the greys and blues won't fade
hoping that dreams still can be made
dreaming much easier don't you see making life
happen perfectly beautys closer now
life looks naked thru these closed eyes never wanting
to really open them never waking deep inside
beauty tastes so naked never wanting to open them.
Feel Like Letting Go
I'm drowning I'm rising I'm hanging by slender threads
I'm weighted down with every breath
I'm loaded dice in a hurricane I'm snapping
wings in lightening chains its flowing to my eyes
and ears its swallowing up every year and fear
is just flowing like the blood and waiting where
the sea sobs I'm drowning I'm rising
and I feel like letting go.
Loves A Sometime Thing
Where shall it begin can't say when can't say
where can't say where you are.
