Make It Mean (The Wind Is Radio Hot Mix) by Phil McWalter published on 2020-03-10T15:24:35Z MAKE IT MEAN And the bricks are all wet The sand is damp and We smell of work Our dirty hands Have built a castle Hid our dream But they hang on every word Yet we are no-one The sky is full of clouds The wind is radio hot and You and I can run To the river Your skin is fingerprint free Dreams are momentary They will see us walk Past the tower She always thought she’d break She always said she’d shake The walls on the outside The bars on the inside She always thought she’d break And we don’t count But we are counted Our steps are followed Our hearts recorded We’ll shine on the inside Look dull in the eye Slow on the stare Quick on the glance Their fingers stroke devices Reality’s in crisis They will see us talk In the shadows She always thought she’d break She always said she’d shake The walls on the outside The bars on the inside She always thought she’d break The sky is full of clouds The wind is radio hot and You and I can run To the river But you could make it mean More than a movie scene They will see us look Right through them And we can make it seem More than a dying scream They will see us kiss Forever © Phil McWalter Feb 2020 The heroic Rick Medlock @rick-4-1 on the fabulous Drums & Percussion The otherwise understated @phil-mcwalter on The Other Stuff Genre Alternative Rock Comment by Daniels & Durgy Wow! Such an innovative composition with impassioned lyrics and striking vocals over such a production of emotions. Bravo Phil!
