Grey Streets |
Grey streets and streets of grey |
Patrolled by knights from the invading day |
Closing eyelids stutter and tumble and turn away |
Makeshift memories they collide for another stay |
I was attracted to you because the forces were so blind |
And you were attracted to me |
Because my face smiled down from a wall |
And you said I looked kind |
Well hello it’s me again |
I just called 'round to see my friend |
'Cause when I’m talking to you can’t you see that the world’s aglow |
You’re so semi-precious about life and you won’t let your feelings show |
I was a photograph |
I was a picture on display |
You were so negative because once I owned the world |
But I gave it away |
I am here and you are there |
We are near so why should we care |
You almost wish you werw dying it would be an excuse to really live |
I sometimes wonder why 'cause you’ve got nothing left to give |
And I was attracted to you |
Because the forces were so blind |
And you were attracted to me |
Because my face smiled down from a wall |
And you said I looked kind. |
