lyrics

far away
running from the coming day
a silent call
slipped underneath my cellar door
I was caught
waiting for the light to change
a brilliant flame
burning through the atmosphere
escape
are you here following?

keep the sun
on the backs of everyone
'til afternoon
then chase it down like a balloon
floating over walls and fields
weighed down by your fears

we set our sights
for far away on a moonless night
then slept all day
well, in and out anyway
build him up
take his hands like buttercups
a star for a mouth
knotted twine for his brow
cauliflower for his ears
broken mirrors for his tears
