From the recording City Life
Lyrics
Everything about it was strange
Living at the top of my range
Everything was too damn easy, I thought…
Working in the depth of the mine
Sleeping off the best of my wine
Trying to trace an infinite line…
Don’t listen to me when I awake
For your sake
Waking up in desperate times
Reading out the rest of these rhymes
Feeling so disillusioned, no doubt…
You don’t care too much
It’s never the same
You don’t care
Making believe it’s a morning train that rolls by
Everyone I see is a marble stone that turns wide
Then I forget to change my hair
Every time
You were there
Every time I left for the coast
Thinking I could change you the most
Every time I needed the same mistake gone by
Don’t listen to me parrot the choir
I’m on fire
I’m on fire
