Heaviness In The Head (Live)

lyrics

Heaviness In The Head
There’s a heaviness in the head today,
There are stones tied to the body.
A flickering projection plays,
the windowpane has gone foggy.
A touch from skin would help with the moment.
A grey backdrop acts as a solvent.
Don’t wait, it won’t pass.
Through the looking glass.

There’s a forest in my eyes and a brook in my brain.
Pull the flowers over my head, asphyxiate yourself sane.
Keep breathing, even when you’re alone.
Don’t dig up the seeds you’ve already sown.
No-one will ever know, no one will ever know.

I’ll go where the bees go,
Begin at the beginning.
Clarity comes with the sunrise,
But I want a light more forgiving.
I’ll tear out my own eyes,
And wonder why I’m blind.

There’s a forest in my eyes and a brook in my brain.
Pull the flowers over my head, asphyxiate yourself sane.
Keep breathing, even when you’re alone.
Don’t dig up the seeds you’ve already sown.
No-one will ever know, no one will ever know.
No-one will ever know [x 12]
