Black Stick

The Cruel Sea · The Honeymoon Is Over [1993]

My heart is a muscle and it pumps blood

Like a big old black steam train

My veins are the tracks

And the city is my brain

My stomach is the ocean and it swallows up the sun

At the end of a summer's day

My breath's like a breeze

It blows all those storm clouds

Away



My head is the city and it houses all the thoughts

And secrets that I have

And the mayor of the city thinks the citizens ain't half bad

My arms could be weapons or instruments of love

My legs are skyscrapers, they tower

Above you



My heart is a muscle and it pumps blood

Like a big old black steam train

My veins are the tracks

And the city is my brain

My stomach is the ocean and it swallows up the sun

At the end of a summer's day

My breath's like a breeze

It blows all those storm clouds

Away



I could be your whole world

I could be your whole world

I could be your whole world

I could be your whole world
