Silent Movie Dreams

[Verse 1] He tells me his sleep is a crowded little club melodies arguing and rhythms at the bar I close my eyes and everything turns charcoal frames of light and shadow floating in the dark [Chorus] Silent movie dreams black and white screens in my head you hear the horns I see the script instead I turn the volume down till the colours start to breathe I’m alright with quiet I like what I can see [Verse 2] You wake up humming half a broken tune chasing down a chorus you swear you almost knew I wake up with brushstrokes still drying behind my eyes a wide and wordless canvas Gloriously Tongue tied. [Chorus] Silent movie dreams black and white screens in my head you hear the horns I see the script instead I turn the volume down till the colours start to breathe I’m alright with quiet I like what I can see [Bridge] Your world is a record spinning fast mine’s a gallery in dappled light you tap the table, I trace the air different languages still the same sweet dreams.
