When the pill has worn off and the buzzing’s died down
And the room could be any old dark room in the town
And you leave all the dancers to the bang of the drum
Out to the night air
And it's out to the bouncers and the smell of old skunk
And it's out past the drunks til you’re on your own
And there won’t be a bus til you’re already home
So you started walking
And the street looks like a movie with your earphones on
You smile to yourself as it plays the next song
And it’s some stupid crap you forgot you had owned
And you started singing along
You started singing along
Walking all the way back home
Walking all the way
And I hope you found some peace at last
And I hope you found some peace at last
You were walking all the way
You were walking all the way back home
You round to your road as the sun’s coming up
It plays the last song take your earphones out
And you listen to birds and the sounds of the day
Then up to your room again
Up to your room again
walking all the way back home
walking all the way
And I hope you found some peace at last
And I hope you found some peace at last
You were walking all the way
You were walking all the way back home

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
