Flame Failure

By Anthony Moore (2000)
On album Flying Doesn't Help & World Service (2012)

Flying Doesn't Help & World Service
The hearing continues, the simple halt of dreams
Flame failure occurs
Nothing, nothing is what it seems
Oh a tree with no colours

Strangers in the night find that living is a fight
"More light" She cried, moving to the window
But the air don't get any brighter
Then I heard her say "What's the matter inside?"

The trouble has started, too late to demonstrate
The use of oxygen masks
You're leaving I'm grieving I'm brokenhearted
You say that it won't last

Strangers in the night find that living is a fight
"More light" She cried, moving to the window
But the air don't get any brighter
Then I heard her say "What's the matter inside?"

And once in love does that feeling pale?
Won't be your hammer I won't be your nail
'Cos it brings you back to front again
Back to front again

Somewhere missiles over the rainbow
More pharmaceutical killing of pain

BV:
What a mess, what can we do?
To be alright

The hearing continues, the simple halt of dreams
Flame failure occurs
Nothing, nothing is what it seems
Oh a tree with no colours

BV:
Flame failure occurs
What a mess, what can we do?
To be alright

It's that simple - simple halt of dreams
It's that simple halt of dreams
It's that simple halt of dreams
It's that simple halt of dreams
