about

This was written following an emergency visit to hospital to have my appendix removed. The result of some vivid dreams caused by the cocktail of drugs I had in my system. I woke one night after a particularly harrowing dream and wrote this song in about half an hour. My daughter (aged 4) also provide a soundbite for this track.

lyrics

ANAESTHETIC RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS

Hey, wake up, it's time to go, as they dragged me down the corridor
Masked man told me to lie down, he pressed my throat and held my mouth
I held my arms out, hands were tied, just roll with it we'll be your guide
The tiles in the ceiling died, all thoughts of you were gone

It's the night time, that wipes you out the most

Tonight I'm swimming in darkness, baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins
Tonight I'm swimming in fire, baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins

I saw a fight and felt the pain, a man's face in a pool of rain
The picture then was incomplete, a full moon dipped into the sea
Phone call came the voice was wrong. Was it you? I won't be long
The faces from the past were gone, there's nothing you can do

It's the night time, that wipes you out the most

Tonight I'm swimming in quicksand, baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins
Tonight I'm swimming in amber, baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins

My daughter’s face it disappeared, I couldn't save her, no one cared
Tried to reach her, not so fast, muscles trapped in frozen glass
The room it shook within my dream, a force it lifted me unseen
Your hand upon me, tried to scream, I woke and started breathing

It's the night time, that wipes you out the most

Tonight I'm swimming in concrete baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins
Tonight I'm swimming in my tears baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins

Tonight I'm swimming in nothing baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins
Tonight I'm swimming in my tears baby
Anaesthetic running through my veins
Anaesthetic running through my veins
