[00:00.00]Reaching For The Rail - Rick Wright
[00:43.77]I'm ill with a fever I feel like a child
[00:52.19]I lay in the dark 'til morning came
[01:02.08]It's so unoriginal
[01:07.41]And I feel it worse at night
[01:12.24]I know it's not terminal
[01:16.88]But I'm near half-dead fright
[01:21.77]And freezing cold
[01:26.00]But sooner than woke up
[01:32.60]To find it all unchanged
[01:37.63]I'll sleep through the day til the daylight ends
[01:47.07]Cos it's all so familiar
[01:52.30]As it comes around again
[01:57.42]The same taste to everything
[02:02.43]The same unbroken chain
[02:07.05]That still remains
[02:34.27]With morning I rise
[02:38.88]A dream that won't leave me
[02:42.62]You're sad naked and pale
[02:47.37]And you're reaching for the rail
[02:59.16]You took a look inside how could you peel away
[03:08.69]Or break the shell the hurt you've hidden so well
[03:13.98]For all your days
[03:17.82]And you're going down
[03:22.38]As you slip beneath the waves
[03:27.51]Won't make a sound
[03:32.44]Won't even leave a trace before you
[04:15.61]I hear an appalling sigh from the streets below
[04:22.89]And it's creeping fear congealed in stone
[04:27.97]That paves the crazy road
[04:33.58]And all are succumbing and they look so hopelessly
[04:42.97]At the heartbreak it's easy to deal with
[04:48.14]Just take these and you'll really never feel it
