About NEWS FROM THE OUTSIDE: This is based on the first
poem I ever wrote for the love of (the whole rest of) my life. My thanks go to Jay for the tasteful keyboards, and Mark for the heartfelt vocals. Any Floydian trivia in this song are my sole responsibility
lyrics
Night games, jammed doors: you play outside,
I play inside: touching the wall
Night moths you brought lovingly, you bring
to me, never reaching me
You're nothing but your coal eyes, and I can
only see the night that erases your face
Here's news from the outside
Quiet and silent overnight, upon the wind,
upon the edge it's been shed
Wide blue lightning howls along the brim,
the razor edge of colourless words
You're nothing but your coal eyes, and I can
only see the night that erases your face
Here's news from the outside
Two eyes made of coal try to decode, to ride
from here into the heat
News from the outside - the word for today,
to ride from here: return to sender
