[Intro]
Bm
With continuous ease
A
Our words form leaves, in deciduous trees
G G
And they fall in slow motion down past Old Kent and Whitechappel
Bm A
All the way to Parks, Lanes and fairs in may
G G
I dare to say some even nudge up against your nephews left shoe
Bm A G
I watch him fetch too, it whispers and sketches of blue trees with green sheep
G
Now who believes dreams speak
Bm
What seemed bleak becomes noticeable
A
It gleams deep so we can cope with the dull
G G
And these are my Watchdog Water Dragons
And I guess...
[Verse 1: Bliss]
Bm
...That I'm just a jar drifting by the tide
A
And I hope that a star will lift me to reside
G
In the hands of a single soul that can relate
G
To these scrawlings, my fingers cold, still relate
Bm
By the force, that draws the cogs in my clockwork
A G
That lights my way through the fog in the hot dirt
In your youth you’re just blowing in the wind
G
And ya, see the truth and they throw you in a spin
Bm
Of this vicious cycle it won’t clean the stain
A
And I, think it’s vital I dont seem the same
G
When I, look in the mirror see the long hall bound
G
When I’m stumbling, crumbling and it all falls down
Bm A
Like, do ya, feel the rythym and like
G
Will ya, still be living a lie
Will ya, kneel and listen to yourself
G Bm
The only person that can peel the prison walls away
They all, fall to dust
A
And ya’ll are saying we can call it trust
G
And if we call it trust then now all of us
G
Can get down together and live tall and just
Bm A
Cause I never plucked an eyelash, I only, wished it goodbye
G G
I said I never plucked an eyelash, I only, wished this could fly
Bm
Into books, poems, stars bloom and movies
A
Theme park scenes, dark cartoons of scoobie
G
It soothes me, it’s all the same don’t confuse it
G
Bored to video games, create the music
Bm
Just use it
Children, thank you very much
A
I’m aware that you’re building a sanctuary up
G
Cause reality creates the sadness
G
We rely on these things to escape the madness
Bm
Like doing those “that I can tell by your stare”
A
Our common ground is that we’re both aware
G
My first tv murder the night in anti-poor
G
My hole into a closet of 1984
Bm
But when I wrote something lovely with my ink
A
I stopped being humpty dumpty on the brink
G
Of losing my balance I found it shit
It was a point man
G
The feeling I get when I'm alone but we join hands
Bm
Chilling out but I’m bound by a necklace
A
I don’t know but I get a little reckless
G
And if I don't make it to the end of the road
G Bm
I don’t even know the weight that I will unload
A
I wish I could relapse another time
G
Turn back the tap discovered rhymes
Back and forth, forth and back
G
Ya’ll pulled me in but that cord went slack
[Hook: Eso] (x2)
Bm
Just me in my room writing rhymes
A G
To listen when you barbeque outside or
Indoors jam-packed in the club
G
Going 60 in your car you can feel it in your blood
[Verse 2: Eso]
Bm A
Let’s build a world of our own, so start to gather rocks
G
The shire’s known chatterbox
G
To build a home for unfathered kids
Bm
And guide the population cross the Harbour Bridge
A
The harvest is controlling, my Watchdog Water Dragons
G G
I’ll never stop writing, that’s just a great author’s passion
Bm
To write a million books and not look back at one of them
A
And to notice when the children look
G
There’s something that the buildings took
From their natural purpose
G
And in a state like this, I can never be nervous
Bm
This is my house, my crib, my kingdom
A
Where the floorboards creak and the kids keep singing
G
We live each season just to give beats reason
A
Step into my house, all kids leave dreaming
Bm
Vanilla sky walking with a halo and some cannabis
A
My t-shirt reads “minorities in management”
G
And yeah that’s right, I’ll die for this habitat
G
Glide young poet, fly, bring the magic back
Bm
His nest is home, home is nest
A
I wanna rest my dome, I wanna hold your breast
G G
And if the world would give me a chance and I could write on by
And fly just like a kite in the sky
Bm
See this matchstick, signifies my love
A
It won’t burn out it’ll only rise above
G
What a view from here, we survived the flood
G
Too many blind and deaf to hear the cries of doves
Bm
Anymore cause the parks been crushed by the buildings
A
And the view has been, replaced by a ceiling
G G
Plus the carpark was a paradise, underneath
That ground won’t be free to breathe
Bm
So I ride on a dragon and my couch is a tiger
A
To stop the towns flooding and the houses on fire
G
But no that's not true reality's a bitch
G
Stuck in a catagory where your salary is shit
Bm
So, capture my love, whenever you feel it
A
They say that’s just mud, he doesn’t have feelings
G
Well I do and it’s true, I cover the canvas
G
Me in Strawberry Fields looking for answers
Bm
All I wanted was a mansion, for my mother
A
Fat houses all around the world, for my brothers
G
“Flowers In The Pavement”, a world that sings
G
Studios in every basement and girls with wings
[Hook: Eso] (x4)
Bm
Just me in my room writing rhymes
A G
To listen when you barbeque outside or
Indoors jam-packed in the club
G
Going 60 in your car you can feel it in your blood
