lyrics

'Sensory Belt'

I glance across the other seats upon the bus
and gaze off to the west
We breathe the same air;
pumped through the jets in our chests

When the tigers were in full bloom,
it kept our numbers low
I was born in a surgery ward
ate melons though the Algonquin snows

The painters dip themselves into the sensory belt
collecting symbols of stars
Its not how it looked but how it felt
we held the tree up by her arms

But dovetails are just dovetails
and we’re not doves any longer
The tigers have lulled our U-Boats
and approach our illuminated shores
