lyrics
These flags are false that we hold (an illusion)
An affront to unfold (an intrusion)
Yet these laws we uphold (in confusion)
Have left us covered in mould (astray)
Piecemeal
Watching ships as they go (right in front of me)
Sweet chariot swung too low (swooped and claimed thee)
Spare a thought for lame crow (bruised and broken)
Grounded, lonely, solo (astray)
No-one has nailed me, I carried this cross
Packed up my quiver, got back on the hoss
Preserved for the winter, stored without frost
You can leave me alone, but not at a loss
Shop-soiled and spoiled in the face (horse before cart)
So long soloing disgrace (fell off the chart)
Longdrawn, long gone in longjohns (all torn apart)
Without a doubt I'm still gone
Suffering these splinters
Short days and long winters
This piecemeal pirouette
Has burnt skin and seared flesh
Wide-eyed yet spite in my heart
An affront to unfold (an intrusion)
Yet these laws we uphold (in confusion)
Have left us covered in mould (astray)
Piecemeal
Watching ships as they go (right in front of me)
Sweet chariot swung too low (swooped and claimed thee)
Spare a thought for lame crow (bruised and broken)
Grounded, lonely, solo (astray)
No-one has nailed me, I carried this cross
Packed up my quiver, got back on the hoss
Preserved for the winter, stored without frost
You can leave me alone, but not at a loss
Shop-soiled and spoiled in the face (horse before cart)
So long soloing disgrace (fell off the chart)
Longdrawn, long gone in longjohns (all torn apart)
Without a doubt I'm still gone
Suffering these splinters
Short days and long winters
This piecemeal pirouette
Has burnt skin and seared flesh
Wide-eyed yet spite in my heart
