STILL LIFE
i saw myself in a crystal swan
smiling, with the light you stole
for me
then you wrapped me in my youth
and locked me in your sunlit
arms
but you walked me into thursday
another thursday with sunday left home
so i turned off these exit lights
jumped off these violent heights
cos i found what i'm looking for
and it just wasnt me anymore
not me, not me
anymore
i heard myself in the autumn pipes
shimmer, with a flatline leash you strung
me from
please don't wrap me in my little case
and take me home to mother
dear
but you walked me into friday
another friday with sunday left home
so i turned off these exit lights
jumped off these violent heights
cos i found what i'm looking for
and it just wasnt me anymore
not me, not me
anymore
i'm in this glass house
and i'm throwing this stone
and if you'll find me
i'll have no home
no home, no home
anymore
