World Apart

Smoky eyes like the fog
That hangs over the station
Before the first train arrives
Twisted like the branches
Where the cat got lost
Serious for a minute
Like the air that we breathe
In a cotton candy dream
She wakes to fall asleep
In the van of another
Plush tomatoes ripe and wrong
Or maybe they're potatoes
Sail down the stairwell
Like perfect snowflakes
The violent neighbours they are dancing
To the pipers song
In the fields while they glisten
With mosquitoes being born
Oh you closed your eyes
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong
In a world apart
Oh you hide their lies
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong in a world apart
And hold the weight on your shoulders and you don't mind
In the evening summers gone
She breaks a pump and screams
So long she goes barefoot
On the walk back home
As the morning sells oysters
By the baby blue machine
We hold hands with Tiger Lily
And peel off the night
Oh you closed your eyes
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong
In a world apart
Oh you hide their lies
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong in a world apart
And hold the weight on your shoulders and you don't...
And hold the weight on your shoulders and you don't mind
Oh you closed your eyes
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong
In a world apart
Oh you hide their lies
Cause you don't know what they mean
Ya move on and turn wrong
I painted all the elephants crimson
And wash my hands in Sahara's sand
I try to jump off her rollercoaster
Staying away from peppered souls
And hold the weight on your shoulders and you don't...
And hold the weight on your shoulders and you don't mind
