lyrics

Seas of trouble:

I had a friend
A long time ago

Says I should be realistic
But I don't know what that means
Why would she say that?

She wants me to set my sights low
And aim beneath it
Accept who you are
And just enjoy it

People would say that I was
Quiet and shy
So after a while, after a while
So did I

But there were always storms inside
And seeds of trouble

What kind of fool
Would want to live their life again
You know I really couldn't be bothered
I want to get things right, right here, right now
No time for living in doubt

She said she'd love you
Forever and a day
But she left you
She left you behind
There's no law no law no law
That says you can't change your mind

And her opinions were
So one sided
She'd get so nervous
when I was undecided

People would say that I was
Troubled and shy
So after a while
After a while so did I

But there were always storms inside
And seas of trouble

What kind of fool says
It's time to act your age
You know I really couldn't be bothered

It's your mind
Not your skin
That shows
The passage of the days

She said she'd love you
Forever and a day
But she left you
She left you behind
There's no law no law no law
That says you can't change your mind

Maybe this town would look better
Once the trees have grown
Funny how the streets seem so much smaller
Than when we were young

Can't change the past
Can't undo the things that you've done,
The 'good looking one'.

On Ultimate Things
by Kirsty Hawkshaw

This is a great and, strangely, underrated album. The elegant melody of "Leafy Lane" , the repressed rage of "Sci-Clone" the haunting beauty of "Orange". Invest in it now. Chaos a Go-Go
