Sprawl II

LETRA

Sprawl II

You heard me singing and you told me to stop
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
These days my life I feel it has no purpose
When late at night the feelings swim to the surface
‘Cause on the surface the city lights shine
They’re calling at me, come and find your kind

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise
Like mountains beyond mountains
And there’s no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

We ride our bikes to the nearest park
Sat under the swings and kissed in the dark
We shield our eyes from the falling stars
We run away, but we don’t know why
Like a mirror the city lights shine
They’re screaming at us, we don’t need your kind

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
That we can never get away from the sprawl

Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise
Like mountains beyond mountains
And there’s no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights

You heard me singing and you told me stop
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock

Sometimes I wonder if the world’s so small
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?

Living in the sprawl
Dead shopping malls rise
Like mountains beyond mountains
And there’s no end in sight
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights
I need the darkness, someone please cut the lights
