the flashlight shot right through your flickering heart people's movements round you fall apart cackle out an ooze of sweat and laughter spin faster learn your eyes' distress from quietening gazes find your swift ignition flare amazement a gutter ballroom to your feet like raw meat they move slowly - how they bore me, live so slowly phosphor drowns in cigarettes breathless smoke the prince of tuesday nights he spoils his joke tickle fancies till they scream in rapture moisture i could never share your world suddenly it's too absurd sometimes even dance can limp sometimes your diction's stumbleing your footsteps never kiss the cancelled rhythms schism so here inside me it's all very quiet
drifting like the wind in my scorched hair shifting like the winter through bald trees all my life i am tonight growing like a cramp in your right hand thriving like the winter's divorced land frustration leads to knowledgs burn your laughter mirthless so here inside it's all right ruthless like the needle in my eye cutting deep like friends caught when they lie raging gives you knowledgs pack the stars up mirthless the dancefloor cracks your bones and launches a laugh the dust creeps in your lungs and stutter coughs your hand bursts open, hit by treacherous footsteps sunset you move slowly - how you bore me, live so slowly i move slowly - how i bore me, how i bore me
