lyrics

I read the news that spoilt my day
Someone’d wrote I had passed away
Comments where both good and bad
Emojis smiled and some where sad

I keep calling
I keep falling
Sanity’s in doubt
With the news that’s broken out

I keep calling
I keep falling
No one seems to have the balls
To answer my calls

So I went along to my own wake
Hoping to weed out the snake
Some people there I didn’t know
Turn out really seemed quite low

My shadow was the last to go
Where it went I’ll never know
Was the only thing that had remained
I even seemed to have lost my name

The sky that once was pink and blue
No longer has its tone or hue
I do concede to what this means
Now I am the shrinking man

I’ve lost my place I’m lost in space
When did this go so very wrong
When did I write my own swan song

about

Frank From Blue Velvet Hastings, UK

A Hastings based band merging big film scores, jangling guitar riffs and dancing swing beats. Songs that paint vivid pictures of corruption, redemption and flawed individuals. Misfits, oddballs and broken toys.
