frank sinatra if he didnt suck

As I rove out
In the Glasgow rain
And press my hand 
To the light
The sky rolls backwards
And falls away
Collapsing into night
And as you step forward 
In a haze of neon signs
I will say it once
For the both of us
Goodnight

And as light pours in
Like a sinking ship
Takes water from 
The sides
And when breaking brittle
Morning light
Drowns me from the blinds
In the space between the ticks
Until I open up a drink
I will say it once
For the both of us
Goodnight 

When the empty room
Paints faces on my eyes
I will try myself
To remind
With all the love
And spaceman eyes
We just ran out of time
And as I fall back
Into another waking night
I will say it once
For the both of us
Goodnight

Goodnight

what’s the matter?
all your candle lights are burning 
we’re not learning
from the bastards at your door
we went dancing
but you don’t dance like just a glass and
the glass bottle
filled the blanks from off the floor

christ loves a chancer
but fuck knows that’s not the answer
still in your canter
i could make myself a bed
fucking lonely
though i still remember wholly 
(?)
jet black ponies
ran the course on broken legs 
we did gamble
and not to overly post amble
but i would kill to
bleed us dry like that again

jet black ponies ran the course on broken legs

i’m a rover

A thousand words come out at the speed of light 
It gets me overwhelmed the darkness comes over my eye 
You always caught me when I thought you would leave my side
But that’s I lie baby don’t need to tell me twice 
Never thought that someone could me feel so right 
I know fixate on the past just to hurt myself
I know that toxic but I’m trying to get some help
But If your patient darling I’ll hold your hand through it all
I’ll be the one to clean your knees when you fall
Sat on the bathroom tiles held in my arms all night


Don’t leave me now
Don’t leave me now

In the shadow of the steeple I saw my people,
By the relief office I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?

There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me
Sign was painted, it said private property
But on the back side it didn’t say nothing
This land was made for you and me

As I went walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless skyway
Saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me
