lyrics

the people who would be so proud
the shapes your thoughts make when you don't think
and peripheral sight brings them so close
and it hurts
but it's ok
it'sok
and it hurts
but it's ok
it'sok

they aren't insensitive swines but where's the line?
there's nothing i could say to heal you quicker
though the leaves scatter and rust they seem so bright
you may not have them but you had them
you had them

first it waits but when it hits
you lose the you before
but in time you will find
a you to bring you home

rain runs down the hill and hides in the ground
i hear the water but there's less than before
and when you look in her eyes it's dim but it's there
i won't stop you pretending
but i know you are

i won't stop you pretending
but i know you

first it waits but when it hits
you lose the you before
but in time you will find
a you to bring you home

and if there's nothing else to think
we're just beginners here
and if there's nothing else to say
no i don't know how you're feeling
i know it isn't really the same
but let's pretend snow is just rain in stasis
let's pretend that we're only waiting
let's pretend snow's just static rain

Shambles Sails the Clockwork Sea
by Shambles Miller

Shambles Sails the Clockwork Sea is a brilliant collection of very enjoyable tracks, especially recommended if you fancy having a laugh/indulging in some political subversion! Louise Connell
