Wrap around my mind, Your grip so cold. Squeeze the matter out, This blood runs gold. Colouring water streams of information Down which we are sold. All of these impressions that I can’t see, Digital paws are all over me. Playing host to modern ghosts, Imprints on the breeze. All these connections I barely feel, Digital claws have a hold on me. Numbly limp in the buzzard's grip, Ascending gracefully. Gaze upon my eyes, Your torch-like stare. Drain the colour out A sight scorched barely Seen through visions blurred Reflect in blackened mirrors. Golden threads in history we leave. When did we all become a currency? All of these impressions that I can’t see, Digital paws are all over me. Playing host to modern ghosts, Imprints on the breeze. All these connections I barely feel, Digital claws have a hold on me. Numbly limp in the buzzard's grip, Ascending gracefully. Buried in history, Mummified in circuitry…

Out of reach, Almost everything, You believe I could be. Out of touch, From monotony’s crutch Stumbling through, What a pleasant view… I’m building my life on the sand, No glory to be found in a band But the air and the water is free. Turn it in, When your outside’s dim, Turn it well from within Keep me off, That monotonous crutch Limping through, What a pleasant view… I’m building my life on the sand, No glory to be found in a band But the air and the water is free No choice in the matter at hand Now would you ever ask the sand, To stand and withstand the sea? Stand the sea, stand and see The eye of noon reflects in me I don’t believe that I will ever leave this graduate scheme It seems alright to me…

Glenties 03:13
Plough-lines of water, By dead-eyed farmers, turned, Bead of sweat I am sweated off Furrows on God's brow These moments stuck in time Like insects in amber underground This is an exercise Landscapes we travel through A movement from side to side There is no split divide. And the dawn, yeah it rained on me In the rain, then it dawned on me...

Television dreams of human beings Full-of-static minds, full of empty scenes Red, blue, green is all it sees Kaleidoscopic heart longs to beat And it's turning me Turning so perfectly And it's burning me You pull the plug from under me What are these corroding memories? What can I think that hasn't been thought? What can I seek that hasn't been sought? Television dreams of fornicating Lots of little deaths and silent screams Rise and fall, the running theme Copper-wire lungs long to breathe. And it's turning me Turning so perfectly And it's burning me You pull the plug from under me What are these corroding memories? What can I think that hasn't been thought? What can I seek that hasn't been sought? To feel something when it’s not there, All that is solid melts into the thin air… You pull the plug from under me What are these corroding memories? What can I think that hasn't been thought? What can I seek that hasn't been sought? You pull the plug from under me What are these corroding memories? What can I think that hasn't been thought? What can I seek that hasn't been sought?

Little chick you never left the nest, You just rebuilt with copper-wire. Panasonic youth… When did the youth, we become so dull? People pickled in information. A jar out in the dark, sucked of its lustre. Little chick you never left the nest, You just rebuilt with copper-wire. In the dark it almost looks the same, But I can feel your shame. Panasonic youth in a PC World.
