Peace & Quiet |
| After the red ants, the black-out, come peace and quiet |
| Those little footprints fleshed out calm in my mind |
| I lay like a compass, digits accusing the sunrise |
| Raindrops abseil the window and flinch through the hurt cries |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me |
| And the tide of my bliss pulling at your sympathy |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me (when my nerve’s on the high wire) |
| My bliss pulling at your sympathy |
| After the hunt and the sweat, now come peace and quiet |
| Your head on my heart anchored the storm in my eyes |
| I lay like a carcass, your lips never letting the blood dry |
| And so I pray for tomorrow and wait, listening out for a reply |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me |
| And the tide of my bliss pulling at your sympathy |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me (when my nerve’s on the high wire) |
| My bliss pulling at your sympathy |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me |
| And the tide of my bliss pulling at your sympathy |
| I feel this great pressure coming down on me (when my nerve’s on the high wire) |
| My bliss pulling at your sympathy |
