Just a stone's throw away from cold
Sticking it out as I kindle my bones, running low 

I fiddle in fits of hope 
Pocketing puzzles, I litter kaleidoscopes 
Glittering fractures aglow 
Don't be a quitter, you told me once 
So where did you go 

Leave it behind but a mirror reminds 
I can only rewind and I can't play it back 
A lonely horizon, it rises and falls 
Seems I can't catch what's coming and I'm losing what's already gone

Dreamed of a house in the hills 
Made believe gutters were towers with pillars 
And alabaster songbirds 
Now my head's in the dust-clouds, could do with some cleaning out

Leave it behind but a mirror reminds 
I can only rewind and I can't play it back 
A lonely horizon, it rises and falls 
Seems I can't catch what's coming and I'm losing what's already gone

A cavalier cavalcade roams 
Bearing away all that's left of our tomes as the sun sets polychrome
Call it a day it's been coming for centuries

Play It Back

Holy water
Violet eyes and stained glass cheeks
As you look for relief
Coral knees 
Salt rub frailty
Baring your teeth 

Looking for someone to believe
This won't be forever 
But I don't want to solve it 
Lying at the bottom of the

Deep sea diving
Treasure troves must abound 
So far beneath the 
Grounds for coffee
Drink before you should sleep
Mechanical eyelids seize

To find just someone to believe
This won't be forever
But I don't want to solve it 
Lying at the bottom of the 

Deep sea diving (x6)
