Lyrics

[Verse 1] I had a very bad dream The main actor in it was me My scream had lost its source Like a reservoir in a summer drought [Verse 2] Images remade themselves I explored internal galaxies The boys of summer had upped and gone Girls in their summer dress had flown [Chorus] Here's what I discovered In my quest for ancient colour I used to make sense But now I am confused I used to control But now I just feel used Here's what I discovеred In my quest for ancient colour [Verse 3] Nеgative capability Ran straight through me My soul a suburban sinkhole A vast brutal urban sprawl [Verse 4] I had a very bad dream The main actor in it was me My scream had lost its source Like a reservoir in a summer drought [Chorus] Here's what I discovered In my quest for ancient colour I used to make sense But now I am confused I used to control But now I just feel used Here's what I discovered In my quest for ancient colour [Solo] [Chorus] Here's what I discovered In my quest for ancient colour I used to make sense But now I am confused I used to control But now I just feel used Here's what I discovered In my quest for ancient colour [Outro] Modern life was killed and crushed By a derelict digitised love My scream had lost its source Like a reservoir in a summer drought
