Blue Foundation Ricochet Lyrics

Ricochet Lyrics

Yesterday my troubles seemed so far away



And now there's nothing left to do but watch the choices slip away



And all the voices ricochet – our conversation disappears



In recrimination – voices ricochet – they're just



Words in the distance, like birds inside my head, and



The water runs red – you're a



Stone on the windscreen, you shatter the world ahead







Voices ricochet – you can picture a big ‘thirteen', try to extinguish me



Relinquish me from the damage



It's only mortality…



It's the echoes of carnage



Now the view is all tarnished – the rest is just wreckage



The sky's a varnish, furnished with thoughts of flight



And the pain still visible in light and sound and sight







Dismiss the sky – voices ricochet







Grip is precarious



There's various ways the path of truth can bury us



Too many variables, too much chit-chat



Too much of this and that



Too much zig-zag, yin yang, yak yak







I'm all right, Jack, pull up the plank, I'm aboard



Fall on your sword – a humming repetitive



Feels like a sedative, nerves are the last to decay



Don't worry, it'll fade away







Voices ricochet – our conversation disappears



In recrimination – voices ricochet – they're just



Words in the distance, like birds inside my head







And all the manacles that bind, the pinnacles you climb



To the background of a cynical ‘who' and ‘what' and ‘why'



And ‘why not?' ‘Scuse me while I dismiss the sky







Voices ricochet – dismiss the sky
