Tender Years

I'm strong until you tell me I'm weak
So rich until you say I'm poor
I'm brushing off apologies thankful I guess for the thaw
I'm here until you call time
I'll surely stand after I fall
What's the dew on the ground telling me
I haven't been here before
Those tender years chimed
How we grinned connecting our broken line
Anyone who had anything about them
Their's a lot of them about
I didn't expect us to be comparing our battle scars
Sifting through such silent contemplation
Looks like we've made it this far
Unsure into the unknown
I don't mind if we can't find ourselves
From time to time
Anyone who had anything about them
Won't you tell me where you've been.

You Can't Change Me

I said I'd get there in my own time
But you set the Wolves at the door..
Must be your shadow out in the Hall
I can Jive to the nail
Where it sits is where I'm going to sail
Go ahead and call me poor
For all the dimples in my jaw..
This worm's got a lick of sense..
You Can't change me Carrot or stick
I know what you're thinking
I like the sound of it.

My favourite lyrics "Don't think it's the big one''
"What took us so long" "We "We should take a step back"
"A frothing humdrum Hatchback you've got more style than that" " Still you unfixed me counting myself lucky''

'' Cut cold ,deep in your locality,
I don't want to be the ghost you feared
I'd changed so I thought I had grown,but something has grown bad inside.
I'm so far now behind you,still sending out my heart to the embers I follow
Potions,poisons & feelings
Standing falling then kneeling''
Above are some of my favourite lines

Dragons In The Breeze

I'm playing with paper your grinding your teeth
Your Silver Bird awaits seems our time was brief
After the Glasshouses all you wanted to sleep
You so wanted the Promenade,you sure did
A Tick a Tape Parade,sure fire
Double parked on a side street
You can wire the fade
No giggling in the shade
In the shade
who's wriggling from the truth you made
You work so far back,
Previous applicants need not apply
Reach for that,we both know
Exit strategies from on high compound,compound
Yet the ground remains
Malleable,let's bottle it and cap it honey
Certainties how they fall
Hey look over there
Tangible realities,actualities
Walk tall and then walk on to where your truth is
You've covered the fees,
Now what a wheeze
Dragons in the breeze (x 4)
Nothing to do
So I went back to bed with my rice pops honey
A champion breakfast
Before the face cloth's reckoning
Now go get a ghoul
Keep him on a spool
You've covered the fees,
You can really snap it
Oh what a wheeze
Dragons in the breeze
Who needs stultifying dignity
Let it pass you by
There is a shift in me
It's handed down from on high
You have been chosen
And even I can see why
Mapping out a strategy
Alright already
Still applies in the round, the round
I'm playing with paper,you're grinding your teeth
Your silver bird awaits
It seems our time was brief
After the Glass Houses
You just wanted to sleep.

From the pebble dashed walled estate
Day gone menus
Formica state
Tonight it's coming down
From the R.E.X
You are making a Pig's ear
In a knowing glance
Cap half full
At the R.E.X
