Red wine and tan lines
Colour our differences
You feel less satisfied
The more that you acquire
Black cabs & bar tabs
To help you get away
You feel quite justified
To feed your magpie's eyes
You'll be happy
When you're willing
To share
Worn holes in old clothes
Wait for the hand-me-downs
Tethered, tangled, and tied;
The suit that fits too tight
Hide behind the bread line
Hunger howls our pockets dry
'Nd It should cripple your pride
To know others won't survive
We'll be happy
When we're willing
To share
Gather the right minds
'Nd Slowly through time
All the right minds
Ignoring patience that we lack
Will inform the new minds
And likely inclined all the new minds
Will in turn replace the old
We will change you easily
Great ideals will be replaced
Red wine & tan lines
Colour our differences
Economic divide
This doesn't suit me fine
How I died by the living man
Time passed and so did I
A frog in the throat
The feelings of the sleeves in an ill-fitting coat
I am nothing of note
I'm just fine
Most the time
I'll get by
Thoughts never teethed
By the unconceived
How bleak
Sleep so unsound in this self-imposed cell
Oh well
Decorate floors with fabric
Dug too deep to break a habit
Buried in a burrow on borrowed time
This hole on the whole is mine
I'm just fine
Most the time
I'll get by
I'll survive
I've been losing the taste for living
Biting my tongue
Now it's bleeding
Biding my time
Just to give in
Laying awake for days
Changing the sheets on my grave
Re-pointing the paths I've paved
Re-living mistakes I've made
I'm so sorry for the things I've done
And what I did to you is up there number 1.
So sweaty of palm and tongue tied tight,
We'll sit here and talk late into the night.
I know that this time is quite different from when we first met
The years haven't been kind worn down by regret
So take hope theres still enough of what made this young man left
All that once was is not quite gone yet.
Cause we are old friends you and I,
Many a time sat silent at my side.
And if this is to be our last goodbye
I'll take with me a part of you that never dies.
Yesteryear still rings my ear.
Like buttons and pins this mess we're in
Dissolves in time.

So summer's here again
And like children,
We run around these streets at night
To find
Both solace and confusion
Too late to try
Our conscience clear.
Hold on to tight.
Our hair crimson in,
The street light,
Sunlight glow.
Never forget
What we shared
'Cos promises were never enough
For us.
So here's to romance
And hot summer nights.
Walking through tall grass,
There's safety in here
Tonight we lay down and watch the stars collide
Our friends all dressed so smartly
This feels oddly, so wrong.
A wood box held aloft
Those guys must be so strong.
J's voice sounding so grave
Tells me out straight
"He's gone"
That's all,
A short phone call,
It's over now.
Tie your conscience down
With heavy heads and frowns.
Running up the walls.
Sick, stressed and all regretful
Of what life could have been.
Tired, stretched and thin
Keep it in.
You're rolling off the rails.
Light signal fails.
Amber's tail;
Of compensation claims,
Screeching breaks and
Loud crashing sounds.
It's over now.
Tie your conscience down
With heavy heads and frowns
Our friends all dressed so smartly
This feel oddly, so wrong.
A wood box held aloft
Those guys must be so strong.
J's voice sounding so grave
Tells me out straight
"He's gone"
So I'll try to move on
But he's helped shape
The man that I am now.
