As Dust Dances
Words by Simon Neil
There’s a man on the corner selling dozens of bones
Every type of bone except the one that I want
Ever think what your eyes do they’re trying to sleep
or where your tongue rests, is it against your teeth
And now it’s bigger than us
It’s bigger than everything it decides to touch
Asleep is the safest place you could be
You can try hard to catch it, it just catches you
Imagine a camera coming up from your feet
Relax all your muscles son just hope your hearts in one piece
And now it’s bigger than us
It’s bigger than everything it decides to touch
It’s bigger than a halo, a devil, an angel and a crow
The bones got the wrong detail I hoped it would have
Save for a shin bone or even a hand
Such a lonely ride, such a lonely ride
The bones got the wrong detail I hoped it would have for you
Save for a shin bone or even a hand
