lyrics

Ran down from the mountain
Suey to the sea
Swim with sharks and angels… they all, they all know me
Pushing with my left hand
Leaves my knife hand free
do you think you know me… well, we’ll see

Killing time… killing me
Digging for melody in the empty sound of industry
Whatever I trust… to set me free
Still couldn’t hold a flame to the paper soul of industry

Out on the street
Tied up in the old town
Harboured up in me
Distant flights of fancy, I took to make me clean
Behind the glass of Gate 10
A big plane starts to roar
Covered by the jetstream… a cold dream

Killing time… killing me
Digging for melody in the empty sound of industry
Whatever I trust… to set me free
Still couldn’t hold a flame to the paper soul of industry

I’ll be just a matchstick
I’m a drop of grease

Killing time… killing me
Digging for melody in the empty sound of industry
Whatever I trust… to set me free
Still couldn’t hold a flame to the paper soul of industry
