Jimmy Gibson - Subtlety in A Lyrics

Read a story
Like a diary entry

From me,
From 1977

Talk about the passion
Punk rock headstones

Darkly lit room
New York City

Read the book
You're so smart

Fall twisted
Deeply in love

Try it now
See faces blinking

Starry eyed like
The backs of money

Faint little noises
Faint little noises

Coming from
Corners of the room

Faint little lights
Faint little lights

Erasing all
Problems of the night

Go to sleep
Go to sleep

Go to sleep
Go to sleep

Saw your movie
It reminded me

Of something
I've seen everywhere, in passing

Good kind of way
As you escape

Sullenly like diamonds
New York City

Saw your play
I don't think much of it

The theatre, as an escapist
I didn't fall asleep

I waited patiently
To clap for people

I don't know
On principles I don't have

Faint little noises
Faint little noises

Coming from
Corners of the room

Faint little lights
Faint little lights

Erasing all
Problems of the night

Go to sleep
Go to sleep

Go to sleep
Go to sleep
