about

This is a song, a lullaby if you will, that I would sing for my sister when we were young, to help her sleep.... on this vewwy guitaw... we used call it 'the lunatic' back then ... now it is just called Tic... have you seen OZ? the tv show not the movie...

lyrics

tiny dead spiders in a web
dirty bloody fingers dripping ink
he hides in the corners in the dark
and all the time...
he is thinking

silent dungeon cold with sweat
like the chilling sounds of a cello’s neck
he feels no pain from the stone wall nicks
and all the time... he is winking

He’s shouting out his cold lament
and screams all day like a lunatic
like a lun-a-tic
tic tic tic tic tic tic tic

propped up bugs all in a row
the tireless dripping in a bowl
he’s the coldest shoulders
you could ever hold
and all the time... he is sinking
the darkest shadows
hold his fears
no real locks that bind him here another hour, a moments rest and one last scream... from the lunatic

He shouted out his cold lament
and screamed all day
like a lunatic
on the walls he left
exactly what he meant
something we
could'nt understand
could'nt understand
could'nt understand .... yet
