about

A duet featuring Bennie Reilly
B-side to single YEAR OF THE HORSE (2009)

lyrics

I’ve looked all over, but I’m out of luck
I’ve searched everywhere
Your sticky fingers, your tender hooks
You didn’t even care

At the end of the day, I fall asleep
Nothing’s for keeps

It’s not over here with the question marks
You found me out
It got lost in all the fire and sparks
What do I do now?

At the end of the day, I fall asleep
Nothing’s for keeps

I was hanging on with my fingertips
My feet off the ground

It’s cut and dried, it’s history
You come and go
It died with the fire you lit in me
Long ago

At the end of the day, I fall asleep,
Nothing’s for keeps

Still hanging round but it’s not the same
What is this place?
Cos behind all the noise
Is an empty space
