Civilisation
(C) 1999 N.Thomas / K.Perkins
Leaping
over streams of feelings
Mutating
dialogues with a politicians tongue
Please re-assure
me that I am only dreaming
Are we too
choked to say the end has just begun
Don't over
dramatise as we side-step falling masonry
As the creature
rears up its head
Try your
best to hold that scream inside
Don't spoil
your hair or make-up my Nineteen fifties heroine
Civilisation
as we know it - Civilisation is at an end
Civilisation
as we know it - Civilisation is at an end
Counting
out our years of laughter, making love under a slowly dying
sun
You've drunk
my wine, come on and taste my tears
Are you
too blind to see the end has just begun
Don't over-dramatise
as we witness the tidal wave
As the killer
insects swarm into the view
Try your
best to hold that scream inside
Don't spoil
your hair or make-up my Nineteen fifties heroine
Sleeping
under dreams of ceilings
A hurtful
wound that could never be undone
Blurring
vision as the sunlight slowly fades
Am I too
stunned to see the end has just begun
