vaseline and cigarettes
take heed and fill my chest
vaseline and cigarettes
bite straight into the breast
drink the name that feeds your dreams
we Speak in numbers just to preen
marvel at the irony
the dream is an ancient machine
marble and ivory
a sentence on a string is Just a dream
i'm tired and i’m trite
i have tried but was denied
with my back against the wall
on the coast of gibraltar
lit by the light from dying stars
this time is nothing, if not all
marvel at the irony...
