lyrics

Head in hands
Crumpled shirt
It's been a long day baby
At the office where you work
And outside the blue turned to black
But this room hasn't ever seen that
And behind tall buildings
And a stream
Of sprawling streets as far as you could see
You can feel the air and the trees
Something whispers in your ear
Oh now you can breathe

Oh but the money won’t make itself
And my time is somebody else’s
And baby’s mouth is wide
And I’ve got nowhere to hide
From you

And we were so small
In those arms
Raised up high
Name tasted on her tongue
And each of us
Is sewn in the seams
Patchwork landscape of oil and dust and greed
And I'm gonna make my way and bang a drum
‘Til hands are sore and empty pockets my song is sung
Because the colours outside begin to run
Like a painting in the rain
But this one'll just burn up in the sun

Oh but the money won’t make itself
And my time is somebody else’s
And baby’s mouth is wide
And I’ve got nowhere to hide
From you
