Split The Atom

Wake up split the atom, take her to the train

Walk the dog in the pounding rain

Looking for a way out of my brain

Trapped in it

But I cannot ascertain that I’m trapped in it

Or that the traps even real so I remain trapped in it’s chambers

Gimme real live I prefer it

Gimme real life I deserve it

What’s real? What’s not real?

What’s my shield? My forcefield?

What’s my mind? My blindness?

What’s time? What’s the world?

My girl is as tall as spring, tall as autumn wind

But I’m low like a howling shell

I remember just before I fell

Looking down, like I might as well

Gimme real live I prefer it

Gimme real life I can’t bear it

Gimme real life I deserve it

Gimmie real life we can share it

Gimmie real, gimmie real life I prefer it

Gimmie real, gimmie real life I prefer it

If I could climb out my mind, land square in the fresh air of what’s really there

I would do it. Would I do it?

Another night another chance to get to it

Neck deep in a viscous fluid clinging on to the bar by my bare thirst

Surfing her cheekbones home

No rest, I told her keep me at arms-length, it’s best

But then she held me close and I withdrew the request

Gimme real live I prefer it

Gimme real life I can’t bear it

Gimme real life I deserve it

Gimmie real life we can share it

Stunner.

Hands in my hair going under

Rain on my shoulders, bright lights of London

Down by the water, found.

Drowning towards her

Ground is a memory.

Stunner. Hands in my hair going under

Rain on my shoulders, bright lights of London

Down by the water, found, I am drowning towards her

Ground is a memory.

I wake up, split the atom, take her to the train

Walk the dog in the pounding rain.

Looking for a way out of my brain

Trapped in it

But I cannot ascertain that I’m trapped in it

Or that the traps even real so I remain stuck in it’s chambers

Same old same.

Same old, same old. Same
