My vision's comes too late,
not so easy to leave,
what I need to say,
you recoil at my thunder,
exploding in a frenzy,
lost in luck or numbers,
you'll find out one day,
when I get to see,
plans you’ve tossed away,
is my life so cluttered,
my memories deceased,
in and out of love,
am not made this way,
for a cowards retreat,
bound fast to the days,
i'll make you wonder,
stones, graves, wreaths,
who you've split asunder,
watch out for me.

A smile on her face,
she says carry on,
says don't turn away,
a horizon once bright,
she navigates the Stones,
feels if it's right,
hears them take a train,
like a lover that's gone,
it once came her way,
the picture's not kind,
she can cry but won't,
it’s no place to fright,
why thoughts work this way,
she’ll never understand,
here on this highway,
drives in a harvest light,
hardly a sound,
under an empty sky,
what is safe to say,
not tied to our bones,
nothing to gain,
by going home.

It's useless to hesitate,
when knife's to the bone,
it always strikes too late,
never safe to heed,
where I've been going,
no one makes me bleed,
always keep open the lanes,
where you slay your ghosts,
no matter what others say,
I'm gone from that scene,
just meet me alone,
my turn now to plead,
when I'm delicate,
a tune with broken tones,
please don't demonstrate,
I want to succeed,
God accepts what I've done,
like the wind in the trees,
can you understand ?

Some nights I ask why,
other times God says so,
why stars make me cry,
it might be Space,
that marks our credit zone,
you're always out so late,
back within my sight,
the wind is black and cold,
have you taken fright,
fire and warmth is great,
then why go roaming,
sit with me and stay,
wake up and smile,
make this place a home,
flame starts with a light,
when you hear me remonstrate,
strain my hungry bones,
ask what's to celebrate,
chasing sky alone ?

Here's the question,
why on a secret phone,
you refuse all forensics,
if there's no case,
to answer your creaking bones,
why do you hide away,
say you hear whispers,
of me in magenta tones,
but who makes the trespass,
don't blame the fates,
for taking my loans,
i'm the one intestate,
how are you like this,
flushed as a trombone,
to escape being witness,
your voice is still great,
but no one condones,
your fine line of hate,
be careful at inquests,
your face like blue bone,
unknown and bitter,
blow smoke on your own.

Don't leave with someone else,
from this house of sinners,
lies won't seal our debts,
please spell out why,
you are at your limit,
can't even face the night,
let me take the test,
get us some credit,
leavened by peace or rest,
to be like a child
who enjoys each instant,
makes me feel enlightened,
perish awful nests,
bones of saints for relics,
loved by only friends,
there's blessing in my cry,
a love in middle distance,
where my fears take flight,
blown on sweet incense.

Then you wave ta ra,
it sometimes makes me shiver,
I die sitting at the bar,
you say I am a fool,
to give a little quiver,
you'll be back soon,
takes you tell are rotten,
stories of ports and rivers,
other lives you've scarred,
my image's just a spool,
something you deliver,
bottles, tar, tidal floods,
pictures from afar,
between passage as my lover,
left like a door ajar,
forgive this poor fool,
somewhere she remembers,
when they drain the pool,
you won't be living.
