Powerful Lights
Joel Plaskett
We drove on the bus past the dockyards tonight
I was looking for darkness byt it was so unbelievably bright
Powerful lights they shine down on this place
You keep your money in a safe but you keep your safe in a glass case
Like a soul
So straight and sturdy
In a severely malfunctioning body
I returned to the doctor when he was through examining
He said,
"Never have I witnessed a love so contaminating
Let me prescribe plenty of rest
And some heavy sedation to relieve the pain in your chest"
Now I've been asleep for thousands of years
Reliving history and adjusting the ears of the rabbit
Filtering out the noise
Strictly out of habit
Or to hear somebody's voice other than my own
Other than my own
