Title track from our debut album, available as a limited edition of 250 180gm vinyl LPs.

lyrics

Driving south in an American car
the animals take the wheel
Waiting for rain in a hotel bar
No sunshine left to steal
High above where the seabirds sigh
The animals know the deal
I catch your words as they go drifting by
And watch your dreams unreel

Reality is not a hole in the ground
A sigh or a whisper or any kind of sound
Steps behind you when you're walking home
The panic you feel when you're alone

Rene Descartes said that love is just a fever of the heart
A handful of pills will cure this and sundry other ills
A crusader of the heart I will tear your sensibilities apart
I'll drive a nail through your soul and on it I will hang a cross of gold
Oh if I could reach you

Reality is not a hole in the ground
A sigh or a whisper or any kind of sound
Steps behind you when you're walking home
The panic you feel when you're alone
Reality is not a walk in the park
A lucky break or a shot in the dark
Feeling lonely when you walk in a crowd
You never speak your thoughts out loud
Reality it's just you and me
With nothing between us and no-one to see
A clear blue sky, a circle in the sand
And the animals understand
