Lyrics of Mars

Mars shone brightly in a pale autumn sky … i stumbled out holding my head
i have taken many a whisky bath and ridden them out to sea …
over board. keep coming back.
these refugee memories

hollowed out cathedrals
beckoning believers
i am only what i remember

i’m a grey ghost in this airport bar
one more terminal and i will have fooled time … god knows i’ve changed so many zones
nightmares come and they flirt with their fists … so i tattoo directions home

so i play my ghost symphony
i have been two decades in the ring
he did a fine job when he left a haunted house of me

hollowed out cathedrals
beckoning believers
i am only what i remember

mars shone brightly in a pale autumn sky
i stumbled out holding my head
i have taken many a whisky bath and ridden them out to sea
over board
keep coming back
these refugee memories
