No-Man

No-Man are a British art-pop duo formed in 1987 as No Man Is An Island (Except The Isle Of Man) by singer Tim Bowness and multi-instrumentalist Steven Wilson (the latter also of Porcupine Tree). The band has so far produced six studio albums and a number of singles/outtakes collections (most notably, 2006's career retrospective, All The Blue Changes). The band was once lauded as "conceivably the most important English group since The Smiths" by Melody Maker music newspaper. more »

the city in a hundred ways, 
it wouldn't let you stay. 
remember all the thankless days 
and the lousy take home pay? 

the photographs in black and white 
that show you playing close to type - 
your eyes against the midday light, 
your eyes when they still had the fight. 

they loved you 
when you thought that no-one could. 
they loved you 
when you said that no-one should. 

you talk so fast 
to stop yourself from thinking. 
you move so fast 
so you'll never see you're sinking. 

they love you 
when you think that no-one can. 
they love you 
and they'll tell you that they understand. 

they love you, 
then they say you're much too, 
much too bland. 

spending days on the phone, 
while the cold eats your bones. 

how in the world do you make it right? 
how in the world do you make a life?
