The Build Up |
| Went from cities to touch the suburbs |
| On the highway, but I’m barefoot |
| I need a map but not the destination |
| Need a compass but not a conversation |
| I want to run far from this grey town |
| You’re on every street, marked on the ground |
| Not the meant and not the paint |
| Want the price but not the raise |
| I want the jump but not the height |
| Let me fall but catch me mid flight |
| I swam with sharks and beasts of the sea |
| Only went down for the company |
| Went down for the company |
| I forgot to mention: |
| That you would come back home when I call |
| Left no sign, nothing at all |
| Sorry you won’t fit inside my heart |
| I wanted love without the build up I need the rules but not the regulations |
| Want the wisdom but not the information |
| Need the light but not the heat of the day |
| Need your hands to show me how to pray |
| I lost the plot underneath the fire |
| Of all the dots and lines that took me higher |
| Away from traffic and smiles of tire |
| I like the nights but not the tangled wires |
| Need the pulse to feel alive |
| All the world’s just made it seem all quiet |
| This has all become far too loud |
| I like you more when you don’t make a sound |
| You will come back home when I call |
| Left no sign, nothing at all |
| Sorry you won’t fit inside my heart |
| Won’t you come light the way and wash this away |
| I wanted love without the build up |
