lyrics

Voyuer led you away
cos you had started to stray
so far from
the truth and the light
and pin you up in a butterfly book
we'll all walk round, have a look
say my my
what a bruised and beaten hear

My moonshine was shy
and I'm blinded
I can't go out tonight
I won't be your heart's delight
Cos the portents painted
a gloomy picture
in my morning horoscope
black cats crossed my path
caught my tongue
and I lost hope of ever

Understanding
turn and sigh as they cry demanding
questions, questions
I don't have any answers
see well I can never tell
sometimes a blank page
might look so well
and you can see
what you want to see love

Throw away your angels
they don't love
like the blackened souls do
not like you no not like you

(Billy Haynes)
