lyrics

thunder crashes in the sky
dailies flash across my eyes
past and plans and awful things
loose ends like lanterns flickering

I think the snowdrops are in bloom
but there are no windows in this room

and I can't tell the time or anything
turn off the lights but the shadows cling
I shake and burn up cold, cold sweat
I light another cigarette

and take shallow asthmatic puffs
the anaesthetic's wearing off
as first light seeps through the gaps
here's sleep

I take shallow asthmatic puffs
the anaesthetic's wearing off
and first light seeps through the gaps
