- Dear Stephen Hawking
Dear Stephen Hawking would you invent
A machine that would make me out of size
That I would crawl down beside your ears
And go swimming deep inside your mind
I would hover on the edge of physics
And see the universe from your eyes
But this is bordering unobsessive
- Dreaming
will you go out with me tonight
lose it on a disco floor
take the night bus with me tonight
frost on the window
it's freezing out here on the pavement
but here in your arms
it's heaven
- Europe
There’s a question i’ve been meaning to ask you
How do you feel about europe?
Does it surprise you on the continent you don’t feel the same?
Cuz i’ve been here for days
And i’ve never felt so poor
And i have no idea what i am looking for
But it feels like i made it
- Heartbeat
Magnetic to me in a southern Spanish bar
Ordered another round of cheap Jägermeister
I dragged myself across a chipboard dancefloor
I didn’t know who I admired anymore
Maybe I should be alone
I can see my cover’s blown
Skipping out of time on repeat
- Henry Rollins Don't Dance
when my baby kisses me
it's like honey to a bee
and when my baby holds my hand
it's like heaven on land
but baby don't dance
baby is a punk rocker
but in my head you're Patrick Swayze
- If Loneliness Was Art
You've been on your own as long as I recall:
if loneliness was art, I could hang you from the wall
in some Berlin hall.
It doesn't matter where you've been or who you have been with,
it's like the just Joans said: 'you're oh so sensitive!',
in that jumper,
in that t-shirt.
This situation has to change:
- Let's Go Swimming
In the middle of the summer on the west coast of Sweden
We had sandwiches in our bags waiting to be eaten
Over fallen trees sun was drifting through the leaves
And you led me to the biggest lake that I'd ever seen
And all of the punks in Camden could never shout about it
And all of the hipsters in Shoreditch could never style it
And all of the bankers in Moorgate could never buy it
- We Come From The Same Place
The first snow’s melting on the ground
And I can see the breath in your silhouette
And I remember what it felt like to be warm
And to be safe in love
And I know I have been holding out, and now something’s got to give
But these pictures on your wall make it all seem so out of reach
I’m afraid I’ll fade away
