From My Senses

Can't breathe for the dust
Can't believe it's just the two of us
Can't seem to please
Can't see the woods for the trees

I won't look away
I don't have anything to say
I stepped across the line
I stopped praying for a sign

But the tempest in my mind
Doth from my senses take all feeling
Love is blind and lovers cannot see

I lost the will to live
I'd got so much more to give
I'm not going to move
I've got so much more to prove

Can't think how to help
Can't you just do it by yourself
Can't blink, it hurts my eyes
Can't drink, it only makes me cry

But the tempest in my mind
Doth from my senses take all feeling
Love is blind and lovers cannot see

You took it in your stride
You look like you are screaming inside
You stamp out your feelings
You can't come down from ceiling

But the tempest in my mind
Doth from my senses take all feeling
Love is blind and lovers cannot see

I want simplicity
I need a love like electricity
I drop off the map
I want to sleep til you come back

Straw Dogs

We skipped a beat
We don’t want to be
Holed up in a golden picture frame

The lover’s dream
Doomed to a cemetery
Locked inside our selfish pride we lie

Just like the last time
We learned some fast rhymes
Like when the straw dogs come
They will bite someone
So take flight my son
Run away

We don’t like this
Open space
Where are our rules to break?

Just like the first time
We learned a cursed rhyme
When the straw dogs feed
They will make you bleed
So my son take heed
Run away
