Whilst we're speaking honestly
I should tell you truthfully
I could never imagine your heart in my hand

Likely got swept up in the things
We did when we explored tentatively
The feel of each other's hands

Before mind games
Asking myself just to behave
Hoping i'm not acting all strange
Visibly hiding the words circulating round my brain

I'm a clever ghost
I'm a clever ghost
No one knows where my mind goes
No one knows

Recently lapping the same shore repeatedly
Just like before I can feel the breeze
But it's not moving me

Lay her down
Another trip round a dusty town
Intimate amongst the crowd
People smiling awkwardly

Your hair is thinner now
Drop the bottle it puts you down
Crazy to think she'd still be down
Given how long it's been now

I'm a clever ghost
I'm a clever ghost
No one knows where my mind goes
No one knows

In your perfect run
Did you always think there'd just be one
Eternally revealing Sun
Ocean still and horizon

No that cant be right
Come on babe I can't sleep at night
Where there's a shadow there must be a light
Where there's a shadow there must be a light

I'm a clever ghost
I'm a clever ghost
No one knows where my mind goes
No one knows

Papa

Clever Ghost

In every ebb
And every flow
River in me 
Wherever it goes 

In every tree 
On every tow
Spirit in me 
Wherever I go

Tide comes in and goes away
Breaks the river gate 
Blinds the sun 

Silent, subtle 
River Wey
You make
Me afraid 
Of what’s to come 

On every path 
In every fern
River in me
Wherever it turns 

In every flock 
Down every road
Spirit in me 
Whenever I fall

River Wey

Verse 1

Knowing 
That you’re broken , you’re just 
Coping
Everyday is just a
Prison, that
Keeps you In your mind

Verse 2

And I’ll be hoping 
That you’ll stay here when 
When I’m older
Tired of weight upon my 
Shoulders, I
Won’t be left behind 

Chorus 

You float like a feather 
You speak with no sound 

But it makes me feel better 
Each time
You’re around 

You change with the weather 
You weep and you drown 

But it makes me feel better 
Each time 
You’re around 

Verse 2

Faking 
I remember all your 
Phases 
Hide the hurt with different 
Faces 
Make them think you’re fine 
Patience 
I’ve been hoping you won’t cave in
Inner demons 
You can’t shake them
Won’t leave it all behind

I'm A Dream Fighting Out Of A Man

________________________________

<3LDS

I'm a dream fighting out of a man 
Man, I'm a stream rolling unto a bend 
I'm whatever is around the corner 
I'm wherever my history says 

I'm only ever asking "what happens when I [ ]?" 
...that's what happens when I/I'm a vision in my eye 
my eye decides 
and at the centre of it all the Universe alive 

This cosmic force that runs in my veins 
I'm a human second and a life by claim 
my mischief is in hanging on 
I was born once into a raging storm 

It's not my fault 
I've been dressed in my time 
each weight that welts the wild of my mind 
I'm happening now 
if not for me it's to see what He makes of himself 

I'm walking on a mirror 
I'm biting my hand 
I've swum in your spit 
and pawed at your plans 
I'm listing still in flow divided 
my Captain will that this is what time is 

There's a space inbetween the silent divides 
like how the World fades in as the piano dies 
I've resurrected a million times 
I'm born every minute 
and die every night 

I'm here to find the melody 
impose a lesser self 
address the false assertion that there's anybody else 
my action is the mauling of a temporal confine 
that sees itself repeated infinitely in every direction 

I'm walking on a mirror 
I'm biting my hand 
I've swum in your spit 
and clawed at your land 
I'm listing still in flow divided 
my Captain will that this is what time is
