Testo: Massive Attack. Mezzanine. Group Four.

A flask I drink of sober tea
While relay cameras monitor me
And the buzz surrounds it does
Buzz surrounds
Buzz surrounds

Closed eyed sky wide open
Unlimited girl, unlimited sigh
Elsewhere, indefinitely, far away
Magnifies and deepens
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
And listening
(Keeps me from my hurt)
My ears know that my eyes are closed
(Perish thoughts like contraband)

I train myself in martial arts
As advertised
I reinforce my softened parts
As advertised

See through me, little glazed lane
A world in myself
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
(Flickering I roam)
And listening
My ears know that my eyes are closed
Ready to sing
My sixth sense peacefully placed on my breath
(Flickering I roam)
And listening
My ears know that my eyes are closed

I see to bolts, put key to locks
No boats are rocked, I'm free to roam
On dummy screens and magazines

Closed eyed sky wide open
Unlimited girl, unlimited sigh

To think that I lay next to you
Wasting time when I could do
A simple job in strip lights
A flask I drink a sober tea
Till daylight sends me home
Flickering I roam

Daydreaming, admiring being
Quietly open the world
I hear the time of the starry sky
Turning over at midnight
Seen through me little glazed lane
A world in myself
Daydreaming, admiring being
Quietly open the world
I hear the time of the starry sky
Turning over at midnight
