Story Behind The Song

Recorded in 99 at Sonic One with the earliest line up of deke, known then as Blowfly, it's inspired by a stay in a wet Snowdonia, North Wales. It's about square pegs trying to fit into round holes and how people can rarely be what other people want them

Song Description

Rock Ballad.

Lyrics

Broken angel cherry high.
A soul lives in here somwhere.
He has a home in every town
A crashing supernova.
Who broke the heart of evry single one
That ever loved him.
As they saw his soul apart
A hunger grew inside him.

Hey all the world
Can you see me up here.
Hey all the world
I dont like it up here.

A time shift shape change
Of a life.
That's slowly slipping from him.
Could have been a poet or anything.
Not this nightmare headache movie theme.

Hey all the world
Can you see me up here.
Hey all the world
I dont like it up here.
Hey all the world
I dont like it down here.
Hey all the world.

He wants one more big night
With the never was
Never will honey bees.
Profoundly misguided
Thumbing through his copy
Of the book of the dead.
He turns to the great un-washed
And maybe for one moment
Hears everything thats said.
It scares him so softly
As they're crawling from their hives.
Their words they come like wepons.
There sentences
Sentences cut like knives.

A chemical freeride antidote
Heavy head seems a thousand years older.
As he melts for the last time into the night
Angel of the passover.

Hey all the world
Can you see me up here.
Hey all the world
I dont like it up here.
Hey all the world
I dont like it down here.
Hey all the world
I am frightened down here.
