Blackest Eyes

• Porcupine Tree
• In Absentia

A mother sings a lullaby to a child

Sometime in the future the boy goes wild

And all his nerves are feeling some kind of energy

A walk in the woods and I will try

Something under the trees that made you cry

It’s so erotic when your make-up runs

I got wiring loose inside my head

I got books that I never ever read

I got secrets in my garden shed

I got a scar where all my urges bled

I got people underneath my bed

I got a place where all my dreams are dead

Swim with me into your blackest eyes

A few minutes with me inside my van

Should be so beautiful if we can

I’m feeling something taking over me
