When the daylight weighs a tonne
And all my friends are gone
There's rust around
the things I love
When it's fraying at the seams
of reality and dreams
All those dreams are
quiet and dull
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
Big time breakdown
Look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown
Why didn't you just shout
I'm lonely and I'm looking
For a place to go
Where everything's an embrace
And everybody wants to know
I'm your absent Valentine
And the pigtails in the bride
I'm the still that carves the
toes in your bottle
I'm the lynch mob in the dark
I'm the silk worm in your heart
Spinning out my perfect circle
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
Big time breakdown
Look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown
Why didn't you just shout
I'm lonely and I'm looking
For a place to go
Where everything's an embrace
And everybody wants to know
I'm on the water
Fetch your brother
fetch your daughter
Come come undone
Fetch your sister fetch your son
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
This town's alright
But it's not enough
I'm looking for a quick exit
Like a prisoner on the run
Big time breakdown
Look how the stars come out
Big time breakdown
Why didn't you just shout
I'm lonely and I'm looking
For a place to go
Where everything's an embrace
And everybody wants to know
I'm lonely and I'm looking
For a place to go
Where everything's an embrace
And everybody wants to know
