about

This is a new song. It emerged from a songwriting week with Boo Hewerdine and Findlay Napier. I shall leave the focus enigmatic (open to interpretation). I love what Colin brings to the arrangement with his trumpet. And then Mattie on drums who said 'what have I just done'.

lyrics

Hide and Seek

I
I Am
I Am Lost
And it’s not my fault
So come and find me
Lay down your clubs
Stop the game
I’ve had enough
There’s a waltz in the air
There’s a foxtrot on the green
Distant steps we’ve left behind
Between the Shadow and the Dream

Peeling
Peeling it back
All the flags on the land
The work that we’ve done
The roads that we’ve come
The glue and the gun
So show me the poison purse
In your hand

Nervous
Too nervous to dance
I am the machine
A malevolent dream, in a binary trance
There’s one last chance
To show me that poison purse
In your hand


There’s a waltz in the air
There’s a foxtrot on the green
Distant steps we’ve left behind
Between the Shadow and the Dream

We
We are
We are here
