lyrics

We stumble out, bleary eyed and bruised
from this house, stripped of all we knew
The decades turn - they twist and they change
This constant hum still defeans in the same way

You were a gentle melody dancing from a whistler's breath

And a piercing shrill in this dark quiet room
will be with me now, until the cold silence returns

You were a gentle melody dancing from a whistler's breath

And now I go to speak
but the words are trapped
and the content disintegrates
As I drift to sleep
all these thought collapse
and this bed just feels like a cage
This neighbourhood is still awake
and the sounds just crash into me
But underneath this din
is the gentle hum of your beautiful melody
