My Book Of Regrets

STEVEN WILSON · 4 '½ 2016 · Track 01 of 03

In the back of a taxi cab in London town It's like watching TV with the sound turned down Cause I can feel it I've got a buzzin' in my head And I'm on my way

I see the kids deserting ships like shopping malls On street corners they ignore their girlfriend's calls Cause they got plans now and tonight they won't be home

All of this can be read In my book of regrets

Don't let it bring you down Just wait 'til the morning comes

Sore necks and teenage wrecks in subway worlds And torn tights when drag queens fight suburban girls But they don't care now 'cos they'll soon be safe at home

All of this can be read In my book of regrets

Don't let it bring you down Just wait 'til the morning comes

Under neon lights she walks home Back to her apartment, oh a safe way Harbored when she locks the door she could slip away

Looking out behind the curtains finding drugs she barely seems to notice And the gas fire starts to buzz when the rain sets in.

In the back of a taxi cab in London town All passed out and dreaming on the underground Yes I'm someone but I'm no-one all the same

All of this can be read In my book of regrets

All of this can be read In my book of regrets

Don't let it bring you down Just wait 'til the morning comes
