Roy Harper The Plough
The demons catch me On the stair And I don't know where, I am I don't know how I got there Where was I going? What was I doing? Before that same thought Reached down and caught Hooked me in the gut Cursed me from every angle As I was pulled out Of the water again And began to suffocate in pain Desperately grappling To untie the knot That I can't even get hold of That I can't see but only feel What am I doing? How the hell did I lose her? How could i? Why did I say things I didn't mean? Where have I just been? The house creaks In the silent parting Of the day after day Of no one Not a sound Why was she so mean? Was it because she felt she could be Because she felt she was right? O what a prick I am What a shite And what am I holding? O... Yes, it's a plug Why can't she understand? Because she's never been left She's my drug And now cold turkey Where was I going? To put it on the lamp That's right I wonder whether she's looked up And seen the plough tonight?
