The overlap
The dyed glass
The centrepiece
Sewn-up
Solarised
A Dividing line
Like a cog
Standing still
Follow me down this rope ladder
Our bodies becoming shapes in the sails
It's a leap of faith towards a crash landing
This ice softly splinters
Sandblasted and set free
A trial run on paper.
The earth is solid, you can dig it up
Or you can pave it over
Balconies
Live diving boards
Naked heels
Cotton reels
A poster
A placard
Perspex
Creates a spectrum
Follow me down this rope ladder
Our bodies becoming shapes in the sails
It's a leap of faith towards a crash landing
This ice softly splinters
Sandblasted and set free
A trial run on paper.
The earth is solid, you can dig it up
Or you can pave it over
Sandblasted and set free
I fell in love with flirtation
We're moving targets, you can set us up
The brevity of sensation
The lyrics SANDBLASTED AND SET FREE of MAXIMO PARK is also present in the album Our earthly pleasures (2007)
