lyrics

At half past seven, kettle hissed in the sink

Your name sat in my thumb like a coin in a drink

I opened the app by the chipped blue plate

Then shut it again and let the moment wait

I walked down Shop Street with a loaf in my hand

Past damp stone walls and the rain on the strand

Your face in the glass of a butcher’s front door

And I kept on moving, I didn’t go back for more

No more taps, no more taps

No more taps, no more taps

I left that screen in the dark

No more taps, no more taps

By the Spanish Arch, with the gulls overhead

I saw your old post and I let it lie dead

My phone stayed warm in my coat pocket seam

I turned to the harbor and broke the old dream

No more taps, no more taps

No more taps, no more taps

I left that screen in the dark

No more taps, no more taps

At ten twenty-one, with the rain on the pane

I heard my own laugh come back again

No need for your feed or your little red sign

I washed out the mug and I slept just fine

No more taps, no more taps

No more taps, no more taps

I left that screen in the dark

No more taps, no more taps
No more taps, no more taps — Cormac Blake · FERAL
