And when I stared up at the dots
On the page
I wouldn’t join up to the plot
So down I stayed
But you were turning with the clock
I saw your face
I guess I knew our hands would drop
But not today
I lost the best part of this years ago
I burnt each chance before I let it grow
Just so I could go
Untested, untried
It said ‘assemble from the box’
I walked away
It said ‘you’ve got to start before you stop’
We all make mistakes
I lost the best part of this years ago
I burnt each chance before I let it grow
Just so I could go
Untested, untried
Give me back my nerve and my senses
Give me back my words and non-consequences
Take me back to unmake these defences
I’m turning back these hands to a time when we were always hopeful
And when this house was always half-full
I’m sure I wouldn’t have been so careful
To leave here untested, untried.
