about

Inspired by The Teleportation Accident, by Ned Beauman.

lyrics

Midnight at the Nursing Academy Flesh out, I know they can’t see me But they reach for my hand
Like somehow they understand me
Lights out at the Nursing Academy They’ll sleep, but how will I see? For when you’re gone
I feel truly alone
You left us back in Paris, You don’t, visit.
You left us back in Paris...
I’ve lost my Nursing Academy It’s not here, where could it be? Oh what a bother
Must nd another
I’ll nd my Nursing Academy Held in a secret library
In the pages
That’s where my love is
Have you come here to claim us? Save us, play with us?
