...


The morning caffeine 
stains your dreams 
Dressing your problems away 
Fraying at the ends, your unmade seams 
As I sink into self decay
'for tomorrow' he cried 
Neigh, muttered the horse 'for yesterday' 
And the waves of smiles I have passed 
all fall on the lonely sands 
I'll see you cry, I've seen you laugh 
I'll see you holding another hand 
Troubles are spoken but 
dead if you're smoking 
A desperate illusion of well-being 
Because as long as you're toking 
Your heartstrings are choking 
As you wonder how she is feeling 
The amusement park is all closed down 
Save for one rusted old ride 
I can't save myself 
can't spare a frown 
I need to find somewhere to hide 
I sit alone at a picturesque view 
That once i shared with you 
Clambering over the blades of peace 
As now we load up for self defeating war 
We were only a means to an end 
Without the means to mend 
The cracks show in the icebergs 
And the cabin is split 
As we try to change course
The captain's jumped the ship
