lyrics
An Arrow In The Eye
I’ve got difficult answers
To easy questions
I’ve got complications
Of simple afflictions
I’ve got stray threads
Snagging out my head
I’ve got a loose arrangement
Of certainties
I’ve got a grip of the facts
On a don’t need to know basis
I’ve got loose thoughts
Blocking up my brain
So I don’t want to see myself
In five year’s time
And I don’t want to talk about
My ambitions
I’ve got a wound that won’t heal
That’s the nature of bed sores
I’ve got sub clauses of clauses
Small print weasel cheats
Clawing at my dreams
I’ve got symptoms of diseases
That haven’t been found yet
An illness Noah’s Ark
A cashpoint for chemists
Prizes for anyone that cures me
So excuse me if I don’t want to see myself
In five year’s time
Still staring at your shelf
As I start at the top
And I work my way down
I don’t want to talk about my ambitions
I’ve got a family tree full of ancestors
Who ran away, that’s how luck found me
I was born to fly
In the sense of running
I don’t feel any shame
In a lack of courage
So I don’t feel a fraud when I’m backing away
It’s in the nature of my family affliction
I’ve got a history
Of missed appointments
With altercations and fisticuffs
I’ve got false diaries
Places I was supposed to be
As I slip out the back and I’m running away
I hear them talk about their ambitions
I’m not related to the last of the line
The one who died
With an arrow in the eye
