above the dove

we’ve got an intergalactic invasion on our hands / don’t call security because they won’t understand / the doves are nesting in the floodlights on the field / they don’t want to miss the action darkness might conceal / aliens take positions in our libraries one by one / they unwrite our history books with their little laser guns / as we’re deleted word by word it becomes clear / future’s exploded because our past has disappeared / knowing there’s a sign to say they’ll take you when they leave / wearing shirts that proudly state that we believe / confident the continent will surely hear the word / the call’s been made and all the passengers have heard / going to a place where they can walk the streets with pride / the insect world is packed and they all climb inside / the birds can learn to swim and all the fish will fly / above the dove in the safety of the sky / you won’t be proud, but you won’t be allowed / above the dove in the safety of the clouds

airlift king

too young to drive /open wide / there’s gold in your teeth / private and sweet / your little bit of sun / an insect’s laws / compare them to yours / a little pair of oars / wishing they were wings / i’m fast forwarding / melt some snow / sing in my glow / sleep in colourfree / gold coats your teeth /stuck on rewind / hormones and crime / you should be blind / melting the snow / don’t say hello / a box full of ants / the power in your hands / the dusty commands / remembering pays / the world is a maze / airlift king / graze on my limbs / sleep in colourfree / gold coats your teeth / lips call and tease / from nectar seas / change how it seemed / fix up the dream /nothing is mine / call in the team / stuck in your jaws / nothing was yours / drowning in cream / call in the team / call in the team / call in the team / call in the team
