While your presence depends
on someone else's plans
My ecstasy rises from dirt
in old tin cans
Rootless, pointless and hollow
like a pearl-less clam
I can't help but sometimes think
it's all a sham

nevíš ještě
| One hundred eighty minutes You couldn't even spare For something enjoyable On a wet summer night It's just a slight blow to my Already bruised ego I shrugged it off and ran free Without you by my side |

Backwater
| Nothing you do surprises me Neither the good nor the bad Nowhere is where we are going Now it's just a little sad Being in this relationship To which there's no more to add Why do we still let it linger? Who's using whom? Who's been had? | ![]() |

Over Jalfrezi
It seemed you did not respect me
when all I got was your silence
Three days later you confirmed it
when you denied my existence
For the first time I feel detached
I no longer crave your presence
What we have is falling apart
it's slowly losing its essence
when all I got was your silence
Three days later you confirmed it
when you denied my existence
For the first time I feel detached
I no longer crave your presence
What we have is falling apart
it's slowly losing its essence

Spare tyre
![]() | I could be of use but hardly in a year I could be taken out to gain space for your gear I could be toyed with rolled around with a stick I could lie here waiting in the dark riding the bumps slowly rotting away wishing I'm in a riot out in the street burning |
Manhole
| How many times do you need to fall face down before walking around that bitch of a ditch? The first time we can consider a mistake but you did it again so I say for your sake It has been too long you ought to have learnt true love, unlike pity can never be earned. |
Recept pro sladké sny
| Forcing your way through taffy gets enervating at some point You must know it's quite daffy still you believe there's a point You continue wasting energy precious time and opportunity Just spit out the hard candy and find a new sweet to fancy |

to move on.
| When walking with you happens only when there's a vacancy When seeing you is practically serendipity When a future with you is as likely as winning the lottery It's time |

K-9
Like the proverbial dog eating scraps
that drop from his master's table
he patiently awaits crumbs
of her time and attention.
Never sour or resentful
ever loving and faithful
he thrives on moments she spares,
their handshakes and her smiling stare.

Lager
| A hundred minute bubbles form and rise from your parched tongue with each pull of chilled amber all sorrows drowned before long. |

Lee
| Running away from the light at the end of the tunnel not looking back, desperate to escape to the dark bliss of nothingness. |

Westerly
Like an unanchored boat gently pulled
By the ebbing tide of a grey sea
Which draws the cruel and drowns all fools
I feel you drifting away from me.
A whirlwind you were that came and went
Could never be caught, forever free
But I'm grateful for the time we've spent
On that summer tryst and autumn spree.
By the ebbing tide of a grey sea
Which draws the cruel and drowns all fools
I feel you drifting away from me.
A whirlwind you were that came and went
Could never be caught, forever free
But I'm grateful for the time we've spent
On that summer tryst and autumn spree.

Uncharted
| I know the graphics are great that the plot is engaging smooth as silk the rendering and the sounds quite amazing. But I'm sure you know, sometimes I just wish you'd find me as interesting as your dodgammed high-tech, blu-ray games console. |
