My Current Theme Song



Clock Without Hands


once there was a man who slept for all his life
everything he did seemed set, date and time
once there was a man who wept on discovering
a life of sleep walking had made him forget
all of his dreams

there's an endless web
that binds us together
strings soft as a feather bed
tying us down

a clockwork life is filled with few incidents
and none of them caused him much surprise
the road from a to b was always the same it seemed
it offered him some kind of comfort
like a rope round the throat

there's an endless web
that binds us together
strings soft as the touch of snow
tying us down



"Clock Without Hands", from the Pram album "Somniloquy" (which was the first one i ever found/bought). I recently re-discovered this favorite song while listening to a leaked copy of their new album . . . it's pretty good but no "Clock Without Hands".
