lyrics

We soaked in weeks forgotten by
the winter sun setting long
Before, even before,
the knelling of the school bell

We played shapes against the wall
of a boarded up Safeways
we tried to guess the bounce
of our half flat ball

I was so much bolder then
with the evening dark to hide in
I was so much freer then
with no thought for the horizon

We wrote our names on the shutters in
Thick and thin Darth Maul pens
We scrawled our initials in figures
Three inches tall

Suspended in air and suspended in time
Like a photograph of a falling man
We gave our names to hang
Eternally

I was so much bolder then
with the evening dark to hide in
I was so much freer then
with no thought for the horizon
