When you saw the ghost across the… Did it look human at all; Or was it all your hopes that died… Left to linger in the house Where starving dreams still lie?

Sitting on the side, Waiting for the dust to settle dow… So I can see the view We’ve built, the beauty We’re planning.

As you leave, A black cloud enters And everything that was good is go… Because I feel the need to watch Beget by never having watched;

Mother, Father; I never heard your bedtime lulls, I still pretend I do. Lover, honest I wish I’d spent my borrowed time

When the dust has cleared If I’m left alone They’ll tell me I’m not To throw me a bone And say that there’s more fish in…

Such a face to see, a villain. Ragged, lilting; Worn and fierce. Eyes that glean the boundaries step within the vapor;

Because I don’t say Because I won’t say It’s another night back and forth I’d rather not speak too fast And find that we won’t last

Breath of steam, away we go; Stacking smoke; shoveling coal. Stepping forward in the line; Rhythm machine, we’re keeping time… Rosie’s got us off our knees;
