I had forgotten all about this. Was a KBT track i collaborated on with a load of people in the days of My Space. I think i got people to send me each a line for the song and someone else did the music. I think!

Lyrics:

Waking in the morning to a blank slate
Issuing the first demand of the brand new day
We fail you, sometimes you will hurt yourself
A world of wonder separates us now

We can give a light so green
But you want to turn it crimson
You can see a light so green
Turn to red

Leaving is so easy when we guide you home
But this still pulls you down

We can give a light so green
But you want to turn it crimson
We can give a light so green
But you want to turn it crimson

Sometimes we shine
Sometimes the colours seem to fade away
Sometimes we fail we fail
Sometimes the colours seem to fade
Sometimes the colours seem to fade away

We can give a light so green
But you want to turn it crimson
We can give a light so green
But you want to turn it crimson


Spectral

Somewhere else
That's where I'd rather be tonight
Counting those beans wasnt quite up my street
Been round the block all those times you see

Look at me now
Back of a pantomime cow
Hidden away with my head in the past
kidding myself that Im not going to miss her at all

Where's that giant
He's behind you
Slay that giant
He's behind you
Oh no he isn't
He's behind you

Hard to walk
Behind another mans stride so broad
Just as I left she asked him to stay
Dastardly prince took my beauty away

Back in the wings
Peek through the curtains what do I see
My beautiful girl is led to her seat
By the bull of a man wholl laugh at my comedy teats

As she turns with the ice cream on her lips
She is laughing as they lead her to the door

Some day I'll have a different part to play
Cos I miss her and I need her here tonight
