lyrics

Sky Tourism

Under thick desert sands picked up by Ophelia
Innocent until proven alive
If you had a heart it’s with that that I’d steal you.
Scared if you chased your dreams you might thrive

And what kind of monster would turn their back on failure?
'Become a proud galleon, and the devil might sail you.’ -

Scared that we’d soar if we leapt off the plank
Fired like a thunderbolt into the sky split with guilt as Ophelia sank

The storm lifted all the sand from the desert
We could see the bare car park beneath
The glazed mosaics of a thousand mistakes
Stripped of lips to shield the teeth.
