Clay

Echo And The Bunnymen · Porcupine [1983]

Am I the half of half-and-half

Or am I the half that's whole?

I've got to be one with all my halves

It's my worthy earthly goal

It's my worthy earthly goal

It's my worthy earthly goal



Are you the heavy half

Of the lighter me

Are you the ready part

Of the lighter me



When I came apart

I wasn't made of sand

When you fell apart

Clay crumbled in my hands

Long way a life load

Statues and haloes



Am I the half of half-and-half

Or am I the half that's whole

Am I the half that's whole

Am I the half that's whole



Are you the wrongful half

Of the rightful me

Are you the mongol half

Of the cerebral me



When I came apart

I wasn't made of sand

When you fell apart

Clay crumbled in my hands

When I came apart

I wasn't made of sand

When you fell apart

Clay crumbled in my hands



If we exercise just some control

When we exercise our sum control



Oh isn't it nice

When your heart is made out of ice

Oh isn't it nice

When your heart is made out of ice



Are you the heavy half

Of the lighter me

Are you the ready part

That has entered me



Am I the "shall" in po-ten-tial

Or am I the "suck" in "cess"

Pools of delusion

Deluge me

Am I the more or less

Am I the more or less

Am I the more or less



When I came apart

I wasn't made of sand

When you fell apart

Clay crumbled in my hands

When I came apart

I wasn't made of sand



When I was the cain

You were the abel

When I came apart

Clay crumbled in my hands
