Powerful Lights - Joel Plaskett

We drove on the bus past the dockyards tonight

I was looking for darkness byt it was so unbelievably bright

Powerful lights they shine down on this place

You keep your money in a safe but you keep your safe in a glass case

Like a soul

So straight and sturdy

In a severely malfunctioning body

I returned to the doctor when he was through examining

He said

«Never have I witnessed a love so contaminating

Let me prescribe plenty of rest

And some heavy sedation to relieve the pain in your chest»

Now I’ve been asleep for thousands of years

Reliving history and adjusting the ears of the rabbit

Filtering out the noise

Strictly out of habit

Or to hear somebody’s voice other than my own

Other than my own
