Pram Lyrics

Music For Your Movies

Silver Nitrate

The woman who discovered light
was dazzled by her ingenuity
and etched her thoughts on the night
her feelings trapped inside the circuitry

With silver nitrate she could make time wait
she could gather all of her hopes and her dreams
and make them her destiny

The woman who discovered light
was puzzled by her own complexity
and spun her thoughts like spiders' webs
and with these delicate chains was set free

Sea Jungle

All the stars are shining for you
the moon in the mist is shining for you
and I called the sea to whisper to you
and I called the wind to sing in the leaves

I would make you a garden in the ocean if I could
The clouds that are silvered I'll catch one for you
the stars far away I'll bring one near
the wind from the north, I changed its direction
I asked it to sing, to sing in the leaves

Carnival of Souls

In and out of my life
come the ghosts of my past
in and out of my head
when I'm asleep in bed at night
all the ghosts of my past

Feels like I'm living in a zombie movie

They come in twos and threes
with painted faces turned towards me
all the ghosts of my past
they dance to music that I cannot hear
but I know haunts me
all the ghosts of my past

Eggshells

Once I thought you'd shelter me
put your arms round me and hold me close
but now I'm vulnerable as a child
'cos you're at the mercy of your ghosts

And all the reasons you gave me were false
but I had nowhere else to go

You always thought you'd live alone
in the safety of your dreams
but that left me out in the cold
naked and fragile I couldn't leave
