The Day You Were Born

from The Invisible Planet by The Walking Faces

/

lyrics

Fly on dandelion fuzz fly away on your dreams. You drank the honey til the very last buzz dissolved into echoes & steam. I might be a memory, I might be an idea, you might be broken & torn

You might remember the day you were born

High over the telephone wires a ghost in search of a steed struck from his house when the valves gave out. Time to separate instinct from need. Do you want to come back or just step off the track or will your broken forevers to reform?

You might remember the day you were born

Waiting at the station for the train to refill with an unlit collection of free-floating will. The engine fires up & the doors hiss closed. Six months from now you will once more have fingers & toes

The car is on fire, that's a foregone condition of driving it in the first place. You might get out before it explodes but you'll never in hell win the race. When you step out insane from the wreckage & flames will you look back with love or with scorn?

You might remember the day you were born
