Cardiacs - The Everso Closely Guarded Line lyrics

One day, in a different way I Will give myself a role In this petrifying life Walking and breathing water Will never be the same Try a new scheme A mans machine And I try at my best And I try giving all I can and Hold it to the window of the world Closing my eyes One day, in a definate way I Will test the heat of the water With everything in sight I mean until I am full As an egg ready to burst So try a new scheme With a mans machine With an insight to try And I try at my best And I try and I cry as I listen To the bustle of the day pa**ing me by There is life in me left To strike a blow for effect Still born goes the everso Closely guarded line One day, in a different way I Will give myself a roll In this petrifying life Walking and breathing water Will never be the same Try a new scheme With a mans machine With an insight to try And I try at my best And I try and I try as I listen To the bustle of the day pa**ing me by There is life in me left To strike a blow for effect Still born goes the everso Closely guarded line
