Acid Test

This house does
Not feel like a home
Is it occupied?
This life
Is not one that I own
Do I dramatise?
These days I think
I'll stay at home
By the fireside
Just leave the outdoors
To get on
While I theorise
There is nothing here
To celebrate
I should be kickin' out
My heels parade, ah
If it fits
Then I'll wear it
If you can hear me
I'll declare it
Share it
I've called
Your name out
Sunny and blue
I've picture sitting
Just me and you
No one else is
Ever around
This is the acid test
That i've found
At least three times
In a single week
I am run aground
There is no warning
I can seek
I am always found
There is no rhyme
Or reason to this
A fault appears
With the gaping hollow
Under my feet
I disappear
There is nothing here
To stop me
I just fall until
It's got me, ah
If it fits
Then I'll wear it
If you can hear me
I'll declare it
Share it
I've called
Your name out
Sunny and blue
I picture sitting
Just me and you
No one else is
Ever around
This is the acid test
That i've found
I think I need
To shake up
Wake up fast
Forgive a little low
I won't let it last
With every little day
That passes
Something is fixin'
If something is broken
This conversation
Is no longer talkin'
I've called
Your name out
Sunny and blue
I picture sitting
Just me and you
No one else is
Ever around
This is the acid test
That i've found
