DREAM THRUM

First released 1993

Originated from a piece of music picked out of an improvisation by Brian Eno, the band say this wasn’t a track they would have normally have picked up on. Of all the tracks on Laid, this is the one that Tim had most difficulty producing lyrics for.

LYRICS

She dreamt the scene the night before

She cast you in her mind

She made your face from clay and straw

Precious stones for your eyes

We cut the cord that brought you here

We left you on your own

We filled your head with wild ideas

Our beliefs, led you on

We leave a trail that's always changed

You keep your hopes alive

This surface may seem calm enough

But underneath, underneath

We made you feel the way you are is wrong

We made you what you are

You are afraid

If you don't play the game, we'll make you change

Oh, I've changed (repeat to end)
