Thousand Oaks Songtext
von Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
Thousand Oaks Songtext
Nobody′s gonna to fix her now
Oh, but it's a world full of trouble
An American massacre
In Southern California
But we′re reasoning with messengers
Who talk about the weather
When it's just another nightmare
A slaughter of the children
With the wolves out there
And the bleeding hearts
And the long blank stares
And the open mouths
She had her last shirt on
Now all stained with blood
With nowhere to run
And you sit and wonder whether anything could be done
And I could climb a mountain
Oh, but what am I gonna find there?
When nothing comes from nothing
With every man an island
And we're reasoning with messengers
Who try to pass for grown men
They′re coming up empty
They′re sending you their thoughts and prayers
With the wolves out there
And the bleeding hearts
And the long blank stares
And the open mouths
She had her last shirt on
Now all stained with blood
With nowhere to run
And you sit and wonder whether anything could be done
Oh, but it's a world full of trouble
An American massacre
In Southern California
But we′re reasoning with messengers
Who talk about the weather
When it's just another nightmare
A slaughter of the children
With the wolves out there
And the bleeding hearts
And the long blank stares
And the open mouths
She had her last shirt on
Now all stained with blood
With nowhere to run
And you sit and wonder whether anything could be done
And I could climb a mountain
Oh, but what am I gonna find there?
When nothing comes from nothing
With every man an island
And we're reasoning with messengers
Who try to pass for grown men
They′re coming up empty
They′re sending you their thoughts and prayers
With the wolves out there
And the bleeding hearts
And the long blank stares
And the open mouths
She had her last shirt on
Now all stained with blood
With nowhere to run
And you sit and wonder whether anything could be done
