Oh Shangri La |
Hole in my head can’t sleep for dreaming |
I’ll be checking out some day |
No shades of red no room for breathing |
No regrets no hours away |
This jukebox won’t play no Sinatra |
It just curses all night long |
There’s no easy spoken mantra |
Put me back where I belong |
Late night parades a dreamers nightmare |
And the boys are closing in |
She’s got no good reason to be there |
But her choices all seem slim |
Well chaos reigns in this old thumb screw |
Baffled lines of hers and his |
Oh shangri la why can’t I find you |
And your faded promises? |
I’ve seen it in your eyes, a wanted man’s disguise |
And a million bad highs |
The lights have all gone red |
The 4am dread |
Then you made sense like the star that you are |
Oh shangri la |
One vicious love after another |
A pointless nose, and shotgun shoes |
Would someone please show me some other |
Place to hang these dead boy blues |
The landlord won’t place me an order |
Well he don’t think that I should sleep |
His wife just sings me to the border |
But I can’t think of her as cheap |
I’ve seen it in her eyes, a wanted man’s disguise |
And a million bad highs |
The lights have all gone red |
The 4am dread |
Then you made sense like the star that you are |
Oh shangri la… |
