These screaming fighter jets Ripping through Norfolk’s skies Tearing up clouds Dampen the shush of the sea Throw weighted blankets over shuffling leaves Silence the brushes of barley Suppress the moans of damp Westerly blows So all I can hear are fingernails scraping Out the chamber walls of my heart .

These screaming fighter jets
Ripping through Norfolk’s skies
Tearing up clouds
Dampen the shush of the sea
Throw weighted blankets over shuffling leaves
Silence the brushes of barley
Suppress the moans of damp Westerly blows
So all I can hear are fingernails scraping
Out the chamber walls of my heart
