Lyrics
Map Of An Englishman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I drew myself an island
Of what I am made from
I built it round my consciousness
Next to a town called Love
Then I looked around and saw
Land stretched on and on
'Til it reached the furthest shore
And love itself was gone
Love itself was gone...
Fear became the forest
Contained by a mountain range
Sex, romance, and tenderness
Lay down on the page
Then I looked around and saw
Land stretched on and on
'Til it reached the other shore
And love itself was gone
Love itself was gone...
