Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) Songtext
They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
these days of life I feel it has no purpose
but late at night these feeling swim to the surface
cause on the surface the city lights shine
they′re calling at me come find your kind.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
that we can never get away from the sprawl,
living in the sprawl,
dead shoping malls,
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and theres no end in sight.
I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights.
We (lend) our bodys to the nearest hall
that under the swings we kissed in the dark,
we shoot our eyes from the police lights,
we ran away and we dont know why
and like a mirror the city lights shine.
They're screaming at us
we dont need your kind.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
that we can never get away from the sprawl
living in the sprawl
dead shoping malls
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and there is no end in sight
well I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights.
They heard me singing and they told me to stop
quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
can we ever get away from the sprawl,
living in the sprawl,
dead shoping malls,
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and theres no end in sight.
Well I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights
I need the darkness
somone please cut the lights
quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock
these days of life I feel it has no purpose
but late at night these feeling swim to the surface
cause on the surface the city lights shine
they′re calling at me come find your kind.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
that we can never get away from the sprawl,
living in the sprawl,
dead shoping malls,
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and theres no end in sight.
I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights.
We (lend) our bodys to the nearest hall
that under the swings we kissed in the dark,
we shoot our eyes from the police lights,
we ran away and we dont know why
and like a mirror the city lights shine.
They're screaming at us
we dont need your kind.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
that we can never get away from the sprawl
living in the sprawl
dead shoping malls
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and there is no end in sight
well I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights.
They heard me singing and they told me to stop
quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock.
Sometimes I wonder if the worlds so small
can we ever get away from the sprawl,
living in the sprawl,
dead shoping malls,
rise like mountains beyond mountains
and theres no end in sight.
Well I need the darkness
someone please cut the lights
I need the darkness
somone please cut the lights
