Why Did You Land?

Taken from "Suitcase 1" 2003

"Standing around
Hoping everything works out
Cause I want them all to work out
You were always so in love with the truth
Why did you change?
Why did you land?

Look at the photograph
Nothing is real
Spend another lonely life
With nothing to feel

Was it something
In the stories everyone told you
You needn't heed them
Maybe you should read them
Go back to where you came from
Why did you land?
You couldn't stayed in flight forever

Look at the photograph
Nothing is real
Spend another lonely life
With nothing to feel

Why did you land?
Why did you land?
Why did you land?
Why did you land?
Why did you land?"

A demo version of a track that appears on a few Pollard releases. Starts off very slow and lumbering in this version (some versions tear through the song like nobodies business). A bit of a live favourite in its more upbeat form but this slower version is an interesting curiosity too.

I thought the line was "You could've stayed in flight forever." Made more sense to me...
