(fish / marillion) |
|
We are jigsaw pieces aligned on the perimeter edge |
|
Interlocked through a missing piece |
|
We are renaissance children becalmed beneath the bridge of sighs |
|
Forever throwing firebrands at the stonework |
|
We are siamese children related by the heart |
|
Bleeding from the surgery of initial confrontation |
|
Holding the word scalpels on trembling lips |
|
Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye |
|
Stand straight, we've drifted past the point of reasons why |
|
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today |
|
And the problem always seems to be we're picking up the pieces on the ricochet |
|
This is the ricochet |
|
Drowning tequila sunsets, stowaways on midnight ships |
|
Refugees of romance plead asylum from the real |
|
Scrambling distress signals on random frequencies |
|
Forever repatriated on guilt laden morning planes |
|
We are pilots of passion sweating the flight on course |
|
To another summit conference, another breakfast time divorce |
|
Screaming out a ceasefire, snowblind in an avalanche zone |
|
Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye, say goodbye |
|
Stand straight, we've drifted past the point of reasons why |
|
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today |
|
And the problem always seems to be we're picking up the pieces on the ricochet |
|
This is the ricochet |
|
Are we trigger happy? |
|
Russian roulette in the waiting room |
|
Empty chambers embracing the end |
|
Puzzled visions haunt the ripples of a trevi moon |
|
Dream coins for the fountain or to cover your eyes |
|
We reached ignition point from the sparks of pleasantries |
|
We sensed the smoke advancing from horizons |
|
You must have known that i was planning an escape |
|
Stand straight, look me in the eye and say goodbye, say goodbye |
|
Stand straight, we've drifted past the point of reasons why |
|
Yesterday starts tomorrow, tomorrow starts today, starts today |
|
And the problem always seems to be we're picking up the pieces on the ricochet |
|
This is the ricochet |
|
I'll be seeing you again, on the ricochet |
|
Will you show me the pieces next time, on the ricochet |
|
I'll be seeing you again, on the ricochet |
|
There's a problem, there's a ricochet |
