[I. Old Haunts]
I found a home in the darkness, found a home in the darkness, found a home in the darkness
Empty stomach empty head a body fills a vacant bed
And the thunder rolls by, and the rains come, and the days gone and I wonder where I am
Found a place in the darkness, found a home in the darkness, in the darkness, home, in the darkness
A crowded room of passers by and in the shadows strangers cry, and the ghosts try to hide
When the rains come, when the storms form, when I wonder who I am in the darkness
Home
[II. Digging Deep]
Digging deep in the darkness, digging it deep down deep down deep down digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down deep, down, deep down digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down, down, down, down, digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it down, deep down, deep, down deep digging it
We watched an insect stray to the edge of its world, a lily pad stretched over a green mirror
In which the ghost carp swirl like clouds before a storm
This is the season of the rains
This is incoming
[Spoken]
And when it came there was no cover, no place to hide
Vision blurred, hard to breathe, trying hard to hold onto something that's real
Nothing left, nowhere to go, no open road, it's washed away by swollen streams
Carried off downriver with all my broken dreams
Digging deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down deep down deep, deep, digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep down, down, down, down digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, digging it digging it, digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep down, deep down, deep down, digging it
[Spoken]
A tethered goat bleats from the corner of the graveyard where the lizards hang motionless as the angels of stone above them, their broken wings throwing long shadows into the grass where the scorpions hide
The tigers are running out of jungle
In the end I was tired of being asked if I could say that I was happy now
As if you need me to convince you that everything's OK
Would you take me back?
Digging deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down deep, down deep, deep digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, down, down, down, down, down, digging it
Deep in the darkness, digging it deep, deep down, deep, deep, digging it
Deep in the darkness, down, down, down, down, down, down digging it
Are you happy now? You keep asking, asking am I happy now?
Why can't you tell me that I'm happy now? Are you happy now?
Happy now? Happy now?
[III. Chocolate Frogs]
[Spoken]
The bloated corpses of unsolved murders and old revolutions, pirouette and dance amongst the swirls and eddies in their final procession down the muddy river to the delta where they're thrown up by the surf onto sterile beaches or are trapped in the roots of mangrove cathedrals of the islands that gather in the bay
[Spoken]
These are the first arrivals on this new horizon that will be coveted by strangers who will deposit themselves on these shores to build towers to the heavens. The storm will come and the rains will fall and remove their dreams and hopes once again to the waters that surround them. And while they pray the frogs will chant in the darkness
A heid full of chocolate frogs, a body full of rush, a pocketful of shrapnel and a skinfull of bush
An eyefull of the future and a belly full of the past, how beautiful the present when you know it cannae last
A tumblerful of voddie, two fingers in a glass, a handful of promises, a heart full of remorse
Mindful of your manners when you're brought down to your knees
A heid full of chocolate frogs is all you gave to me
That's all you gave to me, that's all you gave to me
A spoonful of miracles a nostril full of dust a lung full of Virginia the needs we have we must
A pill to put your heart right a nose out for a deal for a heid full of chocolate frogs what can you give to me?
What did you give to me?
What did you give to me?
What did you give to me?
[IV. Waving At Stars]
You cracked up too soon before the punchline hit home and at the end of the joke did you notice that no-one was laughing with you
You were out on your own
Waving at trains, waving at cars, waving from bars, waving from aeroplanes
Might as well be waving at stars
You called out her name as the darkness hit home, raised up your Zippo and opened the skies till the crowd melts away, at the end of the day, you ran out of light
Praying for rain, praying for signs, praying for time, praying for endless night, might as well be wishing on stars
