The Graetest View

Youre the analyst
The fungus in my milk
When you want no one
And you've got someone

Through the wind you crawl
And laugh at burning dunes
When no one else will ever see

Now that you know why you feel like you do
Their turning their head
Whilst they wait for no one
And finally i know
Why you feel like letting go

Im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here
im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here

mistakes dont mean a thing
if you dont regret them
so pack your tactic toes for the winter
chain a waterfall to burned and withered skin
no one else will ever see

Im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here
im watching you watch over me
and i've got the greatest view from here


Now that you know why you feel like you do
They're turning their head
whilst they wait For no one
And finally I know why I feel like you're letting go

I'm watching you watch
Over me and I've got
The greatest view from here
I'm watching you watch
Over me and I've got
The greatest view from here
The greatest view from here
The greatest view

Reflections Of A Sound

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound

I know it's been far too long in stormy weather
My arrested hope won't choke forever
Like a memory I needed never

We walk wrapped in thought
Some are vacant some have grown too short
It's the only thing I've ever had that keeps me lonely

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound
When nobody is around

Come down from the waist of time
Feel so empty when I feel so fine
Starting over we could change this light shadow sober

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
Coz you're keeping me warm but it's a lonely setting sun

I wait so long now my head is full of pressure
I need time to cure my mind
It's like a loop that lasts forever

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
Coz you're keeping me warm but it's a lonely setting sun

In the sun we are found to be
Reflections of a sound
For nobody

Waiting All Day

I took advantage
Of a straight believing town
That tore the bandage
And said look who's bleeding now
Are you listening or are you faithless like the others
Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true
He's been beaten
Might have brought it on himself
So he stopped reading
Every book on mental health
But alls not lost in this tangle like no other

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true

Take this dose and go
Whiskey warm September
The faded sign will show
That he still remembers

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you it's true

Waiting all day
Waiting all year

I'll be waiting all day
I'll be waiting all year
