lyrics

The Greek observed the modern man who runs around in circles
and knows enough to feel senseless, not enough to know why
The barrel, a joke in the right context
a local anaesthetic for the humdrum state of mind
Everywhere, you can find those who live for empty desires alone
and have no interest in the good life
Everywhere, lament what they don’t have
they’re are never, never, never
ever satisfied

Exist forever on the verge of song

Clandestine plays when we pass the group stage
and still fail — some things never change
Pastoral, no more watching the clock
It’s only air and space that matters these days
A nation from the same hymn sheet sung
or serenaded?
The national anthem
Heard out on the frontline
By the openly disrespected

Exist forever on the verge of song

Blue is the azure of the Hebridean waters,
the shifting tones of the Ishtar gate
And the view from the window seat
on a flight that costs less than the rent
Blue is the colour of Steve McQueen’s jeans,
Sonic the hedgehog, the first and last day of France 98
The custom, a fear and reverence for the colour
of addiction and of obsession
The custom is reverse engineered
from an endgame palatable to a handful

Exist forever on the verge of song
