You sauntered up and you said how’s tricks
You got me drowned with politics
we took and talked and lost the plot
and after that everything seemed fine
And it’s distinct, how people collide
We drag each other’s worlds down under the tide
With intoxicated hands
Cold, cold hearts and well-laid plans
Are you listening? are you listening?
As the days, like the waves, pile up behind you
Ahhh lalala you keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
Why can't i move on?
How do you escape the grey veils at point range?
Go to a foreign island or a house in Spain, going
Laladadada
Oh how I’d kill to go
Wreck the girders and rivets in
A life of buildings and medicines
Ah we all make the same mistakes
Our pitfalls pull us together
Are you listening? are you listening?
As the days, like the waves, pile up behind me
Ahhh lalala you keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
We kick this round my bedroom form
????????????????????????????
But the time, in sight? drift'itaway?
Are you listening? are you listening?
As the days, like the waves, decisively pull us under.
Ahhh lalala you keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
lalala you keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
Friends for life and acquaintances
Romance and great distances
There’s been so many casualties
But i cannot wallow with these
Ohh no.
