Splendid from Delicious Monster by Storm the Palace

We had a good innings as they say
We had a good vision in those days
Chasing down our moment in the sidelong sun
But when it came, it was a sliding one

We had a good innings as they say
I have a dark picture of you these days
And in the dark we look for things to constellate
When all we can do is scatter our signs and wait

From the south-bound carriage I saw two people scanning
For gold in the fields behind an East Lothian housing estate
And I remember the way that you made even
The most mediocre of motorway service stations
Seem splendid

You said that you were fifty percent pain
Fifty percent rage you can’t explain
But you knew what it was to sit in your car and watch the rain
And feel all these boundless things contained
