And it rained all night and washed the filth away
Down New York airconditioned drains The click click clack of the heavy black trains A million engines in neutral The tick tock tick of a ticking timebomb Fifty feet of concrete underground One little leak becomes a lake Says the tiny voice in my earpiece So I give in to the rhythm The click click clack I'm too wasted to fight back Tick tack goes the pendulum on the old grandfather clock I can see you But I can never reach you And it rained all night and then all day The drops were the size of your hands and face The worms come out to see what's up We pull the cars up from the river It's relentless Invisible Indefatigable Indisputable Undeniable So how come it looks so beautiful? How come the moon falls from the sky? I can see you But I can never reach you I can see you But I can never reach you |

I'm in a skip divided malfunction
I flap around and dive bomb Frantically around your light Enveloped in a sad distraction I got your voice repeating endlessly Could you guide me in? Could you smother me? I swoop around your head But I never hit I'm blinded by your daylight Electric veins pass through me I thought there was this big connection I only got my name I only got the situation I just need a number and location Without appropriate papers or permissions I'm known to bite in tight situations And I head into your french windows I thought there was a big connection I only got my name I only got my situation I just need my number and location And my mum keeps telling me Hey hey hey hey hey hey The devil may Hey hey hey hey hey hey You are a fool [x2] For sticking round [x2] Yeah you are a fool [x2] For sticking round [x2] I tried every trick in the book I tried to look and knew Every trick in the book But how come I look? No more common dress or elliptical caress Don't look into your eyes cause I'm desperately in love In love When you walk in the room everything disappears When you walk in the room it's a terrible mess When you walk in the room I start to melt When you walk in the room I follow you round Like a dog, I'm a dog, I'm a dog, I'm a lapdog I'm your lapdog, yeah I just got a number and location I just need my number and location |

A self-fulfilling prophecy of endless possibilty
You roll in reams across the street In algebra, in algebra The fences that you cannot climb The sentences that do not rhyme In all that you can ever change The one you're looking for It gets you down It gets you down There's no spark No light in the dark It gets you down It gets you down You traveled far What have you found That there's no time There's no time To analyse To think things through To make sense Like cows in the city, they never looked so pretty By power carts and blackouts Sleeping like babies It gets you down It gets you down You're just playing a part You're just playing a part You're playing a part Playing a part And there's no time There's no time To analyse Analyse Analyse |
