Lyrics

Just got back today and I'm searching round the place Looking for you-know-who But there's no sign yet Singing, auto-pilot days Shining, ultra-violet rays On this dusty skeleton I feel akin on a cosmic level I can see right through ya Yeah I can read your bones Just like a telephone book Maybe I should, give it up, begin again I am exercising how good it feels to be alit And no surprises up my sleeve Everything is temporary Ooh, praying mantis on my door Looking for meaning or just any sign at all Ooh, organising all my thoughts, making then Rhyme, choosing wisely where I spend my time Gimme midnight love again Feeling somewhat alien I'm floating aimless But got my feet concreted Beneath this creature of habit Teach me the magic of an extra ordinary day Anodyne the time away And there's no such thing as a Perfect melody but I keep searching every Morning in the trees Ooh, praying mantis on my door Looking for meaning or just any sign at all Ooh, organising all my thoughts, making then Rhyme, choosing wisely where I spend my time I got my head sorted sort of, I keep Going, just because yeah just because I got my head sorted sort of, I keep Going, just because yeah just because
