Burning Beaches - Dels, Rosie Lowe

I’m a tired soul like Mica Levi

And it’s weighing heavy

As we argue, fight, unnecessary

Throw verbal darts, straight through the heart

Rip it apart, discard the pieces, hiding the scars

It won’t last if we carry on like this…

This fighting beneath the stars

Release the tension, A catharsis

As we spin around in darkness

Watch the curtains open slowly as we go back to the start

«Let's not blow it» like a cartridge, so she says

«Don't be heartless come to bed, soak your problems in a bath and it will pass»

But my guts screaming otherwise

As I synthesise, all these feelings that I feel

Lost in the loop, hypnotised

Treading on a wire, high in the sky, perspire

Sky diving in a whirlwind of fire

She’s a liar, I’ve already seen in my dreams

Now realities showing me things, what will it bring?

You don’t vanish when I sleep

Because I see you in my dreams on that late night creep

Swimming at the deep end

Singing at Moonrise

Screaming as the sun falls

We’re burning down

All the love, we pretend

Cover up white lies

We’re going down

The beach is burning, heart is yearning, bathing in the flames

As vultures circle in the sky, the wind sings my name

The moon rises from the ocean, vision’s crystalised

Like I’ve had a Mandy platter

Colours dripping from my eyes

To my surprise, I heard my Mrs. from a distance

And I run towards the sound, in the sand I leave an imprint

I’m running on the spot though I can’t move, Image skewed

Beneath the shrew lies hidden truths in sticky goo

No wind surfing on these sheets

Tossing and turning, beaches are burning in my sleep

Apocalyptic view, what a morbid vision

And I’ve just seen my girlfriend kissing

Another Brother with his face missing

Makes no sense in my brain man

Listen, I hear the snakes hissing

Snakes slither in grass I can’t cut

When paranoia’s lid on my heart is slammed shut
