we are the emergency - splinters lyrics

there’s never been a reason to fear or doubt
anything you’ve not already brought about
de facto marriage and a hearing aid

i can hear my thought fraudulate away
so you fall into place
like you’ve done before
the door man’s job is to be ignored
so talk yourself down
from the coming rage
like trying to reason with a hand+grenade

fear cannot be undone
picking splinters in the sun
a dream to fill with hope
a knife you tried
but could never smoke

the dust has long since settled itself
on the walls of your lungs for nothing else
and the increasing sense of disbelief
chastises your blood
for the need to breathe
you’ll never get within
just from going without
too easy it seems for the trying devout
compliant minds and insomniac brains
as the blood comes down like a tidal rain
fear cannot be undone
picking splinters in the sun
a dream to fill with hope
a knife you tried
but could never smoke

tears can fool all but some
the rest can all be, but one
the dream you filled with hope
and died of breath, cos you never spoke

finding the answers in echoes
and wearing smiles that won’t climb to my eyes

fight it, start the mend
don’t keep the wolves at bay
bleed them where they lie
you might as well live to see another life
start it for what’s left
don’t let it see another light
bleed it, let it die
cos there’s something more here
that’s worth your life
pull yourself together as you come alive

- we are the emergency lyrics
