The Wrong Side Of Weird  

 

A sudden unpredictable sky contains the dawn

Seconds in an hour counting down before the day is born

Long enough in the grave to be sustained

Science, or belief, reminders of a time we can't regain



Have all the idle dreamers awoken from their dreams

To find their not alone?

Nothing now is really as it seems

This would always arrive somehow

Problem left unsolved, radiating in the here and now

And in my memory

Only just begun to understand the reasons why

A one in ten degree

Alternate between the faithful and the fearless



If all the riches and ransoms coalesced

As one were intertwined

You would be the brightest I possess

If all the gold and the silver came combined

You would still define the colours I imagine in my mind

And in my memory

Under the same moon, lighted on a lunar sea

A one in ten degree

Alternate between the faithful and the fearless



I can't remember, can't even be him

And chances are slim that I'm found

No finer substance, no final demand

I'm tired and know no bounds



Thought that I was pulling through

Though I never had a chance of winning at all

Caught between the heard and the seen

Something out of quarantine beginning to call

In silence I'm drowning

I'm spinning around and round

Oblivion lies unrevealed

More than flesh and bone can bear together to feel

In silence I'm sinking

I don't think I'll make it down



Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout

And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned

Send out the thing that is driving me crazy

I can douse it and leave it to burn



Daylight dissolving, crawling miasma

On a spellbound and desolate prayer

Somebody somewhere stop me before

I rip away all the soul they've repaired



Time already grows heavy, gravity won't hold steady

Pole people cry for their lives passing by darkly

This belongs to you for he would have loved you as I do

Life as we feared on the wrong side of weird

binds us two



And in my memory

Only just begun to understand the reasons why

A one in ten degree

Alternate between the faithful and the fearless

Where are you now? Who are you now?

I can't go there



Thought that I was pulling through

Though I never had a chance of winning at all

Caught between the heard and the seen

Something out of quarantine beginning to call

Riding the meltdown, right in the fallout

And I turn to the fire when I'm spurned

Send out the thing that is driving me crazy

I can douse it and leave it to burn

Once every lifetime shadows are lifted

And the daylight disperses the dark

Want to be sure that all I've endured is put away

But where do I start?
