Our Town Songtext
von OSI

Okay, hey, I′m going outside
You can put the plate back on the shelf
And it's cold though the snow isn′t falling
The neighbour can speak for himself

And the cold, hard look in your eyes
Is more than a line in the sand
When the truth gets hard to imagine
The hours get harder to stand

He's a seasick terminal passenger
Singing this song to himself
'Til the store bought soul on his skeleton
Sinks into somebody else


He′s a see-saw
Calm in the storm
A hurricane after the war
When he drinks all blood you can offer
He still wants more

Landing planes
And rumbling trains
Are shaking the ground in our town again
Thought it twice
And kicking the ice
I got myself turned back around and singing
Everything′s gonna be fine
I'm sure that we′ll both be okay

Hey, I'm backing outside now
Just put the plate back on the shelf
And it′s cold though the snow isn't falling
The temperature speaks for itself

It′s a moonlit reason to quit
And nobody answers the phone
So if there's still blood left in your body
I'll come back home
