Julian fixing up your hair in the ad break the bright lights the curtain drawn TV man fixes your collar as the camera rolls the front line with no disguise another man pulling out his hair somewhere he's clicking and fidgeting what's your secret? so much weight what you say the bank won't let you get paid what's your secret? see what happens? what's your secret?
3.
when your eye lies feeling something is better than nothing and to me a theme rings here's a clue it's a dream passing by my eyes all within my eye in the sun again of course you're here just gurgling what's the point? try less hard see what becomes all within your eye where could you possibly be? why can't you see why won't you see? get on my channel here i know exactly what you mean better no wait nothing's wait for you don't get it cast adrift floating sideways don't give a shit know it's true you do too stuck in here an animal all but within your eye lottery i want in a dream passing by what's the point? try less hard afterall you've got nothing to offer all but within your eye always within your eye

and i know that you want so much more than this can we be eternal? ourselves projecting the future flowing like a river we swim upstream like a salmon not knowing why it's got to go but driven to the top of the mountain to the source to its end when it gets there we'll be just fine and i'll sing it all the time you'll hear me crying out but you won't listen you run and hide it won't register til it comes from the inside
5.
you never know what could happen you don't know what it's all about some people say we might disappear into light or maybe one day an apple will fall against the sky my lover told me the timing wasn't right i was wrong, i move on the separation between us a gap is closing in what will it take? i hope it won't be too late when the overlap becomes us you never know what could happen maybe we're closer to the beginning seeping through the grey sky survival toolkit will black and white try describing what water tastes like a telescope to find love the separation between us a gap is closing in what will it take? i hope it won't be too late when the overlap becomes us you never know what could happen maybe we're closer to the beginning a second stage, the starting line it's gonna come to be in flashes of light i'll be open for convincing one more time now i've gone and done what i said i wouldn't the good, the true, the beautiful you never know...
