Bitw - Why Are We Dancing?
Just enough to fill a cup
Not enough to fuck it up
Lest I see your face again
So please
Take a piece, it’s what you do
And let me take a piece of you
Burn the skin beneath the spoon
In tea candle light
Why are we dancing?
Give in to the night
Hold off the morning
Push the words into my mouth
Cast me in then catch me out
Who’s to say what it’s about?
Write your answers in the sand
Kept my promise to rehearse
Although each and every verse
Only seems to make it worse
And I begin to understand
Let’s seek out the light
Our time is coming
To leap out of line
I have been counting

Bitw - Head for a Hometown
Tiny men in cardboard boxes Hiding out to avoid the taxes (Said it was only temporary) You never got around (But now it’s all about the money) You got no head for a
Bitw - Age of Anomaly
I never thought I would be back Some years later on a different path To rest before my second act In the age of anomaly I’m the feeling without a name A certain sense
Bitw - Pretender
Look inside my mouth Tell me what you see A thousand pieces of you A thousand more of me The man with the beard He cries as he hears the news He'd suffered
Bitw - When I Was You
Will you stay or walk away? I can feel the cracks in you A different way for another day Time begins to tear in two (When I was you) It didn’t mean that much to me
