A tiny flame inside my hand
+
A compromise I never planned
+
Unravel out the finer strands
+
And I'm looking at a blank page now
+
Should I fill it up with words somehow?
+
I whispered something in her ear
+
I bare my soul but she don't hear
+
The scratching of a mellotron
+
It always seemed to make her cry
+
Well maybe she remembers us
+
Collecting space up in the sky
+
Nothing rises from my feet of clay, but it's OK
+
Red mist spreads across my fingertips, ardour slips
+
I lay her gently on my clothes
+
She will leave me yes I know
+
And I'm looking at a blank page now
+
Should I fill it up with words somehow?
+
The scratching of a mellotron
+
It always seemed to make her cry
+
Well maybe she remembers us
+
Collecting space up in the sky
+
Nothing rises from my feet of clay, but it's OK
+
Red mist spreads across my fingertips, ardour slips
+
Don't look at me with your mother's eyes or your killer smile
+
Sing a lullaby
+
Don't look back into black
+
Don't let the memory of sound drag you down
+
To end as friends so painful
+
Don't look down
+
Shut it down
+
