Courtesy of Michelle Lyons, "Put your songs on shuffle. Write down the first line of the first twenty songs as a poem." Okay, I can do that.
I've been waiting for so long
In the year of thirty-nine
Nous somnes du soleil
Every day my metal friend
I've heard of unfaithful lovers but this is outrageous
It's not the heat, it's the inhumanity
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane
Justice to the left of you
Sex jibe husband murders wife
Another piece of freedom gone
In a violent place we call our country
A hand held over a candle in angst fuelled bravado
{instrumental}
Böses Mädchen
Within myself
See them standing in the foothills
Sometimes I feel like I'm the loneliest of all creatures in the universe
He was a poet, a dreamer
A man in my shoes runs a light
