lirik lagu jack cookson (folk) – patchouli
you haven’t kissed a m-s-ch-st, until you’ve kissed me
i’ve got a mouthful of ulcers
that are chewed until they bleed
and i won’t eat, i won’t sleep;
i will claw and scratch my skin until you let me in
let me inhale the rotting stench of your secrets
and let the sight melt my eyes from my skull
and i seem to miss you at night
in green-eyed hindsight
the ticking hands in the congested sky seem to dictate
how i tell truth from the lies and
i’m still pining for a reason as to why i
what-if’s and not what’s-what’s but
i would sooner jump the avon gorge
than lie to myself again
now with sun on your side and the wind in your hair
tell me in three words or less how little you care
singing your songs on the harbour-side
being everyone else’s sight for sore eyes
but even when that reason’s found
it’s just gonna go on the list of all the feelings
i can’t verbalise and ? insist ?
so, now i’m done perverting epiphany with
this primitive tongue of mine, where i’ll talk the talk
but i can’t walk the god-d-mn line
with burning lips and burning lungs
i will sing to you these words
and leave the way i came in
now with sun on your side and the wind in your hair
tell me in four words or less how little you care
singing your songs on the harbour-side
being everyone else’s sight for sore eyes
singing your songs on the harbour-side
can you still see the green in my eyes?
