Trembling Blue Stars

The Dark World Of The Broken

Album: Fast Trains And Telegraph Wires [Special Reissue] [2016]
Author: Robert James Wratten

Safe in my cocoon

An empty room

Haunted by

Broken songs and sighs

An empty room

A slow descent

Fearless on this island

To which no-one can get

I don’t want to learn

I just want my feelings confirmed

I welcome the false sense of protection

In the dark world of the broken

A tunnel beckoned

I heeded its call

Escape is a long way to crawl

Thoughts of the future are not entertained

Safe and sound and closing down

I make myself small

Freedom from the need for decisions

In the dark world of the broken

An empty room

A slow descent

The dark world of the broken

Of the broken

The broken
