Smokers Outside the Hospital Doors (VPRO Sessions at Lowlands) Songtext
von Editors

Pull the blindfold down
So your eyes can′t see
Now run as fast as you can
Through this field of trees

Say goodbye to everyone
You have ever known
You are not gonna see them
Ever again

I can't shake this feeling I′ve got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
We're smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?

How can we wear our smiles
With our mouths wide shut
′Cause you stopped us from singin′


I can't shake this feeling I′ve got
My dirty hands, have I been in the wars?
The saddest thing that I'd ever seen
We′re smokers outside the hospital doors

Someone turn me around
Can I start this again?
Now someone turn us around
Can we start this again?

We've all been changed from what we were
Our broken parts left smashed off the floor
I can′t believe you if I can't hear you
I can't believe you if I can′t hear you

We′ve all been changed from what we were
Our broken parts smashed off the floor
We've all been changed from what we were
Our broken parts smashed off the floor

Someone turn me around
(We′ve all been changed from what we were)
Can I start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)


Now someone turn us around
(We've all been changed from what we were)
Can we start this again?
(Our broken parts smashed off the floor)
