Wait in the cabin
Stare at the cars
Yachts on the water
No armed guards.
Think of the future
Terror to tears
Like an obsession
So many years
Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be
Catastrophe
Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be
Catastrophe
Shops are empty,
My heart is too,
When the alarm rings
Will I find you?
Never been closer
Now we’re apart,
Find a transmitter
Open my heart.
Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be, Won’t let it be
Catastrophe

And my memory box
Is it failing again?
I thought that you said
Something else, just then.
And you live like the Head,
Of a temple of cats,
Everything that you say,
It comes with caveats.
And your memory box,
Like a play-pit of sand,
Meanings blow in the breeze,
So I can’t understand
Now I’ve written it down
Reproduce what you say
And the meanings preserved
So it can’t blow away.
Help me unlock,
And maybe outfox,
The memory box.
Help me unlock,
And maybe outfox,
The memory box.

Waiting Room

We walked through the graves in the snow,
You wore a Russian hat and not for show.
My inappropriate shoes that made you laugh
Was the first time that we shared a photograph.
You light up the gloom, of every waiting room
My love it can be assumed.
When life leaves us drained, of all we have attained
This love still can be explained.
You crawled in a suitcase and passed out,
We seemed a perfect match without a doubt.
Hide in the hotel bar, and drink for hours,
Steal a kiss among the plastic flowers.
You light up the gloom, of every waiting room,
My love it can be assumed.
When life leaves us drained, of all we have attained,
This love still can be explained.

Why can’t I sleep?
My thoughts are lost somewhere,
And when I fall,
It’s like musical chairs.
And when I dream,
I’m dreaming of you.
That’s not quite a lie,
But not strictly true.
Spiders and shadows
Spiders and shadows
This dusty room,
Of cobwebs and clutter;
Old perfume smell
On the pillow cover.
Spiders and shadows
Spiders and shadows
Haut like a phantom,
Your dark art,
It keeps me from sleeping,
It quickens my heart.

Call it futurism,
Wristwatch television,
Windmills bring kilowatts,
Charge up our pleasure bots.
Capturing our nearest star,
Powering our bubble cars.
Only good can come of this,
Architecture built for bliss.
Skyscrapers, monorails,
Society where love prevails,
Airships in the skies,
Take a pill to tranquilize.

In drudgeries hold, when concentration is poor,
Agitation inside, the words they won’t form.
Resolved that you’re lost, to whispers and shades,
Try to think of your face, so the memory fades.
I dream of you regardless,
Whether I am asleep or awake
Whether I am asleep or awake.
I dream of you, regardless,
It seems there’s no way of escape
It seems there’s no way of escape.
There’s a picture of us, I didn’t ask for it though,
I’ve made many mistakes; they’re all in that photo.
And day passes day, and I think of you less,
No shame in my heart, no love left to process.
I dream of you regardless,
Whether I am asleep or awake,
Whether I am asleep or awake.
I dream of you, regardless,
It seems there’s no way of escape,
It seems there’s no way of escape.
