lyrics

I’ve been inching towards the bottom line
All black no red
I’ve been working towards the wrong way
Candle burnt at both ends
I’ve been drinking from the wrong well
Paid the dowser no heed
I should be living from the ground up
Time to change what I mean

I am become another day
Undreamt unknown along the way

Bought and illusion from the wrong man
See what you want to see
Somebody sold me on a bad dream
Waive the warranty
I’m a sucker for the con job, got fooled again
Another monkey in the rat race
In a maze with no end

I am become another day
Undreamt unknown along the way

I’ve been passing through the center of it
Overstayed my time
Tried to find some meaning where there is none, nobody’s fault but mine
Getting lost walking leylines
Can’t get there from here
Something is calling from a far place
What do I hear?
Just a barrel fish looking for a way back to the sea... he’s at it again
