Pelicans are rising in the dusk dawn pukey sea    And I'm having apparitions performed by my memory    Well the sand feels like gehenna as it swallows up my feet   I am underneath the blackness I am underneath this weight    I don't want any forgiveness I won't savour your regret    I don't need any old dosage to try and help me to forget    Some may call this my obsession but let's just say I'm strong willed   Let me be in your possession and it's victory I'll swill      I'm sorry but I'm only here to claim you   please don't ask me any questions, I'll try hard not to detain you   And forgive me take my hand swear I won't maim you   just a dose of your attention and I'll make myself scarce      Far beneath the cliff tops I'm throwing ashes on my head    And I'm digging my own coffin with the seaweed and the dregs    I may be looking at a blue sky when there's vultures overhead    I am scribbling In the sandstone I am washing out my head       And I'd blame you but I'm only here to claim you    It's this pacifistic war I wage I know I can't restrain you    And I'd love you but I'd sooner rise above you   And I'd wave my flag of insolence and swear that I'd be true    And then I'm gone
