Dead Man's Hill

(альбом: Swamp Ophelia - 1994)

We were down at deadman's hill smoking vines like cigarettes looking through the trashy mags trying to feel what's coming next you told me of crashing cars older brothers and late night bars i told you what i feel most and you kept it like a ghost forever don't you write it down remember this in your head don't take a picture remember this in your heart don't leave a message talk to me face to face lying on the bright blue jumping mat dinner bell is ringing barking dogs and model planes and the sound of passing trains we watch for bonfires in the sky on the beach in july spin the bottle steal the kiss postcards to the one i miss forever the one i miss forever don't you write it down remember this in your head don't take a picture remember this in your heart i'll leave a message when everything comes apart i remember cats on fire gasoline a burning spiral standing underneath the night fighting back with all my might empty cans and charred remains find them in the heat of day on the top of deadman's hill this
is what i know of shame forever
