At the Sea - Night Muse

It's been a while since I really spent time with you or talked to you In a way that makes sense (To you) and grown ups can understand It's been very hard to make myself clear and dear It's hard to say what's on my chest in a constructive yet understandable way Because I'm lost at sea with you And I can't hold back my words Anymore and I hope you Won't leave me when I pour my heart all over you I'm having trouble with mood swings though they're not my own I've been thinking of running but I wouldn't know where to go It's like reading a book but the words are so far apart And we need to find ourselves in the spaces in between Like ebb and flow Like seasons change Like day turns night and memories fade We keep closing in Yet drift away We were rainbows, now we've turned grey

Down by the sea I found your hidden treasure Just you and me, We overdosed on pleasure Yonnies in the wind, We're ruggin' up for winter Putting out the bins In cold and windy weather Down by the docks Live all the silent sea-ships Crates are stored on blocks Where now only the rats live Sail me down the river Till we reach the shore Diving into the center Eating out the core Down on the beach Saluting Captain Benbow Always out of reach It's quiet when the tide's low Climbing up the cliffs You can see for miles far The boat that ran adrift Is sitting on the sandbar Laughing at the waves That storm the river mouth The ice is on the move now Creeping north and south Down by the sea I found your hidden treasure Just you and me We over-dosed on pleasure Listen to your heart Screamin' at the sky Can't you feel it tremble? Don't you wonder why?

Home, it's becoming a killing field There's a crosshair locked on my heart With no recourse, and there's no one behind the wheel Hellfire, you're wiping me out, killed by Drones! Killed by Drones! Killed by You rule with lies and deceit And the world is on your side You've got the CIA, babe And all you've done is brutalise Drones! War, war just moved up a gear I don't think I can handle the truth I'm just a pawn, and we're all expendable Incidentally electronically erased by your Drones! Killed by Drones! Killed by You kill by remote control And the world is on your side You've got reapers and hawks, babe And now I am radicalised Drones! Killed by (You can run, but you're never gonna hide) (You can run, but you're never gonna, gonna, gonna) (You can run, but you're never gonna hide) (You can run, but you're never-) You rule with lies and deceit And the world is on your side You've got the CIA, babe And all you've done is brutalise You kill by remote control And the world is on your side You've got reapers and hawks, babe And now I am radicalised Here come the drones! Here come the drones! Here come the drones!

HOT SUMMER NIGHTS Night There was a time not too far gone When I was changed by just a song On the radio and in my car The pounding of an electric guitar Then the time came to make our stand We started up a four-piece band And the heat felt like spotlights In the heart of a hot summer night Ooh hot summer nights Ooh hot summer nights Return with me to when times were best We were friends that could pass any test Shared our hopes, our dreams, our goals And the fundamental rolls As we sang in the dark rooms Happy just to play our tunes It felt good when we got it right It felt good on a hot summer night Ooh hot summer nights Ooh hot summer nights So it lives and it always will The songs we sung are in us still Ringing out with all of their might In the heat of a hot summer night Ooh hot summer nights Ooh hot summer nights

Black muse, can I talk to you? What I got to share is mighty good news A brand new day is dawning But you and me know what to do (So much work to do) Black muse, we've been so abused Our mothers were good-looking and our fathers were to But if they don't stay together We can't walk no better in these shoes (Black muse) Long ago, two men held one of us down Another took a whip and made a terrible sound Baby watched her father falling down to the ground That was you and me Black muse, can I share with you? Just came this morning and it's mighty good news They tipped the hour glass Now everything is passed It's true They gave the world back to you and me The faces on the mountains and a dirty sea A trillion dollar bill and no currency Still we believe Black muse, we gon' make it thru Surely people that created rhythm and blues Rock and roll and jazz So you know we're built to last It's cool, it's cool, it's cool (Black muse) (Black muse) (Black muse) A new day is dawning Black muse A new day is dawning Black muse Now that I got your attention I think it's 'bout time I mention The reason why I wrote this song Like a UFO sighting From my heart, I am writing The next close encounter Tell me how long Will it be on land or near the water? Will it produce the sun or the black moon daughter? Or a pillow covered with all our tears? 1000 light years away from here (1000 light years from here) (1000 light years from here) (1000 light years from here) 1000 light years from here (1000 light years from here) (1000 light years from here) (1000 light years from here) No yesterday or tomorrow No better remedy for sorrow Or why the fifth held forever will make you cry I don't know why 1000 light years from here 1000 light years from here Well, two unbroken circles joined together make a butterfly Little darling, don't you wanna try? (Yeah, I wanna try) There ain't nothing better than looking for me (for me too) And seeing you (seeing me) Seeing you in the mirror 1000 light years away from here Why do we always seem so far away? When you know that I really wanna be with you night and day I'm running out of ways to say how So I think I'll just close for now
