A tiny flame inside my hand A compromise I never planned Unravel out the finer strands
And I´m looking at a blank page now Should I fill it up with words somehow?
I whispered something in her ear I bare my soul, but she don´t hear
The scratching of a Mellotron, it always seemed to make her cry Well, maybe she remembers us, collecting space up in the sky
The scratching of a Mellotron, it always seemed to make her cry Nothing rises from my feet of clay, but it´s OK Red mist spreads across my fingertips, ardour slips
I lay her gently on my clothes
She will leave me, yes, I know
And I´m looking at a blank page now Should I fill it up with words somehow?

The scratching of a Mellotron, it always seemed to make her cry Nothing rises from my feet of clay, but it´s OK Red mist spreads across my fingertips, ardour slips Don´t look at me with your mother´s eyes, or your killer smile Sing a lullaby

Don´t look back into black Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down Don´t look back into black Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down
Don´t look back into black To end as friends - so painful... Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down Don´t look back into black
To end as friends - so painful... Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down
Don´t look back into black To end as friends - so painful... Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down... Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down... Don´t look back into black To end as friends - so painful... Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down... Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down... Don´t look back into black
To end as friends - so painful... Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down... Don´t let the memory or the sound drag you down Don´t look down, shut it down - don´t look down, shut it down...
