hangover (Remove filter)
untitled pillows
untitled pillows
Dawn disclosed it –
Light from an honest butter sky
Reveling in a freelance body next to me,
With our fragrant attraction
As dried up
As an Atacamian kiss.
I put in me
Sweet, sweet whiskey
Sweet scorned man.
Back then, under the accents
And sweet reprieve of street swept skies
We had clinked our glasses several times
In mome...

Spinning around
Everything feels spinning around
The table The clock The bed all seems to revolve round.
Last thing I remmber was drowning two pints of beer
With me and my pal it was all about cheers
Suddenly now am laying in my bed
And the sun at top of my head
With a heavy heave I pulled myself
Holding on for my life as if it was in hell
Somehow i managed to glup down a pill

I Really Should Know Better
I really should know better
at the age of fifty three
But who am I kidding

I really should know better

I really should know better
it makes me feel so bad
I wake in the morning
sore head and feeling sad
I really should know better
to say no to more wine

I see your face like neon taste
it makes me want for home
my hair’s a mess my clothes un-pressed
Oh Christ! I need a comb
my love’s shot down in rainbow ruin
I’ve played the game and lost
now the drinking’s stopped me thinking
and I...

Hatred Junkie
Fake nostalgia spews out from your head
For a sepia England that was never there
Hatred junkie, you know
Where the blood river flows
Feel the bile at your knees
Marching bands drown out your higher brain
Blaring voices drive your soul insane
Hatred junkie, you feel
Like a cog on a wheel
Grinding so out of time – after time
God made you useless
