Artist : Blue Foundation Song : Ricochet
Yesterday my troubles seemed so far away
And now there's nothing left to do but watch the
choices slip away
And all the voices ricochet – our conversation
disappears
In recrimination – voices ricochet – they're
just
Words in the distance, like birds inside my head,
and
The water runs red – you're a
Stone on the windscreen, you shatter the world
ahead
Voices ricochet – you can picture a big
‘thirteen', try to extinguish me
Relinquish me from the damage
It's only mortality…
It's the echoes of carnage
Now the view is all tarnished – the rest is
just wreckage
The sky's a varnish, furnished with thoughts of
flight
And the pain still visible in light and sound and
sight
Dismiss the sky – voices ricochet
Grip is precarious
There's various ways the path of truth can bury
us
Too many variables, too much chit-chat
Too much of this and that
Too much zig-zag, yin yang, yak yak
I'm all right, Jack, pull up the plank, I'm
aboard
Fall on your sword – a humming repetitive
Feels like a sedative, nerves are the last to
decay
Don't worry, it'll fade away
Voices ricochet – our conversation
disappears
In recrimination – voices ricochet – they're
just
Words in the distance, like birds inside my
head
And all the manacles that bind, the pinnacles you
climb
To the background of a cynical ‘who' and
‘what' and ‘why'
And ‘why not?' ‘Scuse me while I dismiss the
sky
Voices ricochet – dismiss the sky
