Porcupine Tree - Deadwing lyrics

Your rating:

And something warm and soft just passed through here

It took the precious things that I hold dearer

It rifled through the grey and disappeared

The creeping darkness makes the small hours clearer



Like a cancer scare in the dentist's chair

Sucking in the air, wire across the stair

Kicking down the door at your local store

With the world at war, voices through the floor

Unexpected news, wearing high heeled shoes

Blowing out the fuse, paying all your dues

Deadwing lullaby like a fracture tied

It's a worthless lie, to the public eye



I don't take waifs and strays back home with me

My bleeding heart does not extend to charity



Yes I'd have to say I like my privacy

And did you know you're on closed circuit TV?

So smile at me



And a dream you had of your mum and dad

On a beach somewhere and the poison air

With the cancer threat in a cigarette

Deadwing lullaby find a place to hide



And from the yellow windows of the last train

A spectre from the next life breathes his fog on the pane

I look with you into the speeding black rain

Afraid to touch someone, afraid to ask her for her name



And in the morning when I find I have lost you

I throw a window open wide and step through
