Shell (2007 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]

Written by：Peter Hammill[00:00:01]

Turn a card[00:00:35]

Turn a page[00:00:36]

The action sure to start[00:00:38]

Second stage reaction[00:00:41]

To illogical thoughts on random lines[00:00:43]

In a borges dream we move toward[00:00:47]

The writing of lives[00:00:51]

Leave it out[00:00:57]

Leave it in no edits[00:00:58]

With a shout[00:01:01]

With a grin I said[00:01:02]

It was a certainty that I'd arrive[00:01:04]

In an escher sketch[00:01:09]

We walk around the drawing of lines[00:01:11]

The character uncertainty[00:01:17]

As he contemplates his lot[00:01:22]

And tries to move with urgency[00:01:26]

Though he's rooted to the spot[00:01:30]

On the brink[00:01:35]

On the edge[00:01:37]

But lately what I think[00:01:38]

What I said escapes me[00:01:41]

In a flash[00:01:43]

A tiger[00:01:44]

Burning bright[00:01:46]

Does the visionary trance obscure[00:01:48]

The burgeoning night[00:01:52]

She said what are you doing[00:01:56]

And he said what do you think[00:02:05]

Oh no[00:02:12]

What on earth are we doing[00:02:15]

The characters procrastinate[00:02:22]

On the threshold of the door[00:02:26]

There's something here that fascinates[00:02:31]

Though the meaning's still unsure[00:02:35]

And the plot so thick[00:02:38]

Is it some kind of history[00:02:40]

Sketch the thumbnail to the quick[00:02:43]

Oh even though it's full of contradiction[00:02:47]

Though it's flawed in the design[00:02:52]

This is no fiction[00:02:56]

It's a lifeline[00:03:03]

Here we are[00:03:10]

There we went[00:03:11]

Full circle[00:03:13]

Shooting stars[00:03:14]

Heaven sent[00:03:16]

Turned turtle on the beach[00:03:17]

Our shells are left behind[00:03:19]

Life a library[00:03:22]

Like a memory[00:03:24]

Of our ghost written lives[00:03:26]
