about

Ask me for my name was written in 2010. The song is also available on the Wide Lying Smiles 'taster' E.P.

lyrics

Same recurring dream again, sticks his fingers into place, standing proud among the world entire.

Save the lives of many more, his magazine article, darkness for the painting dark desire.

Pleased to look upon the place, watercolour rich with space, dreamed up for the empty minded snakes.

Venom is a casualty, words and smoke loose me all power needs and antidote to take.

Wish that I could talk to you; wish I always walked with you just to know what you’re going through

And it’s only you that asks me, only you that asks me, only you that asks me for my name.
