Camping Next To Water

Badly Drawn Boy · The Hour Of Bewilderbeast [2000]

Camping next to water

The Fish infested slaughter

I feed the fishes into me

It's misty within reason

I'm hoping I don't freeze here

I fuel the fire, I feed its glow

But there's no use in feeling

All the things I'm feeling

There's no one here to feel with me



The second day is easier

Though it may be breezier

And the snow is falling down

But as the fire smolders

I never will grow older

Because I drink from Waterfalls

The stars above shine on me

I beckon them to fall on me

I'll catch and save them in a jar



My feet a mass of blisters

Collecting frost on whiskers

As I taste the morning Dew

I think my mind is clearer now

I want you to be nearer now

I'm ready to come back to you

'Cause there's no use in feeling

All the things I'm feeling

There's no one here to feel with me
