David Gray - Second Halo Lyrics

Beneath the robe
The marble-white of your body
Stands out against the red
Can't tell the things you say
From the thoughts inside my head

You're gone
But I'm still lost in your second halo
Three sheets into the wing
Shoot not too well (...)
Just want something

You (???) ugly as the evening falls
And pulls out all the contents of my mind
Fade above me like a carrion bird
That's following close behind

You just call and I come steaming down the room
Way too fast to ever stop
Then like in an old cartoon I look down
And see the drop

You (???) ugly as the evening falls
And pulls out all the contents of my mind
Fade above me like a carrion bird
That's following close behind

Back at the start in line with a knot I can't undo
The murderous loneliness that's you

It's turning ugly as the evening falls
And pulls out all the contents of my mind
Fade above me like a carrion bird
That's following close behind
