What a shame

oh what a shame
i'd like to pack him in
and take him with
oh what a shame
my suitcase's just too small
fields of yellow sand
kids eating ice cream at the beach
tourists taking pics
of small pretty streets
cropped faded jeans
hanging loose on his hips
a perfect smile
Is sitting on his lips
we're walking downtown
hand in hand
moments not for forever
but seeming to never end
we're sitting at the beach
listening to the sound of crashing waves
oh what a shame
i'd like to pack him in
and take him with
oh what a shame
my suitcase's just too small
Our hands on the window
We touch through glass
But the train has to leave sometimes
And thats when i ask, when i ask, when i ask
Can i ride my bycicle backwards
Downhill
And you'll be the street on that I'll roam
Can I be the canvas on that you paint
On that you paint
oh what a shame
i'd like to pack him in
and take him with
oh what a shame
my suitcase's just too small

i know all those things I say
they sound so harsh
in your ears
it's just
we went all that way
without thinking
and now if we open our eyes
and try to see
what would we see?
where would we go?
where would we walk, walk?
you made me ready to fall
now i'm ready to break
i feel your love crumbling
All the acres run dry
like a ruin
walls first shaking
now bricks of stone left for a while
left to weather to wear them down
now i'm chasing light
i'm chasing hell
my hands shaking
trying to figure out what is still left behind
Now I'm chasing light
I'm chasing hell
My feet shaking
Running, running, running
Stumbling, stumbling, stumbling
Running downhill

Waves

And the ostriches they bury their heads in the sand
but i rather bury myself underneath blankets
listening to songs
that fit the moonscape
you left behind
and just stay there for days
and i know the others would simply alter their words
and i know the others now could twist turn fate
but i can’t
i just watch you leave
but i can’t
my tongue tied to my throat
and the hollow sound of empty drums
fills winter’s dry air
‘’
and whatever it was
whatever you felt
maybe it was less bout me
but now you’re safe from the troubles
you once adored
now you’re safe from the waves
at someone else’s habour
and whatever it was
whatever i felt
maybe it was more what i expected to see
but now you’re safe from the troubles
you once adored
now you’re safe from the waves
at someone else’s habour
now you’re safe
from the waves
from the troubles
from me
from what we used to be

Beauty on my mind
Only tonight but already to far
To far
Show me the world in all its colours
Your touch leaving sparkles on my skin
While words as melody are softening the pricks of conscience
Beauty on my mind
Only tonight but to far
Already to far from home
Show me the world in all its colours
Bursting into flames
Your touch leaving sparkles on my skin
While words as melody are softening
The pricks of conscience
Of conscience

The Other Half of Everything
by Martin John Henry
At first glance, the landscape on the cover of Martin John Henry’s The Other Half of Everything is a scene of complete isolation. This is Scotland. An archetypal rugged landscape of hills and lochs, as far as the eye can see. On closer inspection, there are some signs of habitation: buildings, roads, farms… but they … Continue reading Album of the Week: The Other Half of Everything →
