Sync or Swim 03:37
Sync or Swim I miss the synchronised swimming, I miss the hockey and I miss the darts I know its not about winning, its all about not taking part We get those self-satisfied "feels" from just getting out of our bed : Washed up and bins out, all the animals fed. From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum Another month of fucking Sundays, Uneventful strolls from Sofa to fridge Unremarkable days, Interchangeable weeks That sense of achievement , from opening the front door , dressed. When a walk in the park seems, a life lived too close to the edge. From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum I miss the synchronised swimming, I miss the dressage and I miss the darts I know its not about winning, its all about not taking part We get those self satisfied "feels" from just getting out of bed : Yeh! : washed up and bins out, all the animals fed. From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum From where I sit, I could see for ever Through the floor I can feel, the earths engines hum

We Move 04:55
WE MOVE The illusion of progress, sensation of movement against a background of rust, the slow decay of trust Empty gesture of kindness, the impression of care against a background of rust, the half-life of us [ we move, we move, we move ] The reassurance of distance, the caress of escape against a background of rust, and badly timed lust The deceptions of memory, all the confusions of time against a background of rust, excuses gathering dust [ we move, we move, we move ] She said: well youre not making any sense youre so scared, youre just standing still when motion is all that matters he said: Im telling you the truth, just some events are out of sequence motion is all that matters The distractions of process, its consumpton of days against a background of rust, words never said resignation to history, a reliance on fate against a background of rust, grey yesterdays wait. she said: well youre not making any sense youre so scared, youre just standing still when motion is all that matters he said: Im telling you the truth, but some events are out of sequence motion is all that matters motion is all that matters motion is all that matters and you could be with anyone and you couldve ended up anywhere Im telling the truth but events are out of sequence.
