Falls On Big City

lyrics

We carry the fire
We will die in the snow
If that’s the furthest we can go,
that’s the furthest we can go

I am just going outside
and may be some time

It’s alright
What’s to happen? I don’t mind
I know we’re done
And it shows that we had some fun
And it shows that you had some fun
And it shows that they had some fun
while we fought it to the last,
while we fought it to the last
While we tried to the last

We should have used dogs, dogs, dogs
and still more doggies
But we chose the fat sirens,
the cardboard boxes,
the booze and the light in your eyes
As we set out to seek and find and not to yield
To seek and find and not to yield
To seek and find

We flew like imperfect birds
The last place on Earth
Our own demise
This, on which my thoughts mostly dwell
This, on which my thoughts mostly dwell
This, on which my thoughts mostly dwell
Sir, I’m afraid you’ll come to regret
Sir, I’m afraid you’ll come to regret
not taking my advice

We should have used dogs, dogs, dogs
Fuck the ponies
But we chose to rock jumpers,
to shut ourselves in a maze,
to forfeit the sight of your face
To seek and find and not to yield
To seek and find and not to yield
To seek and find

It may be time to go,
unfold our bare hands, step out of this tent
The cold is biting, goodbye to you, off we go
But everybody knows
that in this fighting there’s a painless end
so don't you worry
No, no, no
Don’t you worry
