Original Daynes/Love composition from our growing catalogue. Puppeteer Sky is an atmospheric, melodic song with a slightly surreal edge, balancing reflection and unease with a strong sense of movement and imagery.
Lyrics
Puppeteer Sky
Drained of an attitude condescending
Just another flavour of the month
Too right
And I will keep on walking
With my head in the clouds
Am I caressed by her silken
Mooncharms
for a reason?
These clothes that I wear
Are a little faded, a touch outdated
Let’s get wasted
On a beach where she
laughed at the puppeteer sky
Held me in suspension
No strings attached
This gigolo dances
With haze in his crazyhead
Drawing pictures beyond a florescent horizon
I stumbled on a Warlock betrayed by God
Feathered & ancient
‘send me all your roses’, he whispered
‘they shall tread on these waters’
But I’ve never trusted strangers, man
I share my soul with no-one
I live to guide like a prophet.
Offering mountains
Shall reduce us to tears & compassion.
These directionless roads take no
turning as pure
As history’s crown
Caffeine rushes
Pointless motives
Let’s steal away
Around nights’ corner
Let’s steal away
Rehearsing on some clever
Evening play, you
fought my corner
It’s raining knives
& let us be lovers in bloom
Lovers again in your room.
I stayed too long. On a puppeteer sky...
