The Sky We Scrape - Nocturnal Americans Lyrics
It's hard to talk / tongues between teethI lost my way so I'll be briefI've begun to disagree with this breed of violent peaceThe dialogue and the debateGood things will come along - just waitSystem coats you like a shellWhat you need nobody sellsOur love for this goes so far backI missed the train in seconds flatAnd the lights of passing cars are still rolling thru the parkThis portrait hangs in empty heartsFrom the places where they startIn no harmony no matter where we goWhy do your dreams come from that magazineAnd you're not to blame / the wasted manRipple in a water canNight birds scatter, last call pleadingCan we make a late night house call?We don't look so good tonightWe're the kings of midnight runsCell phones, guns, and rolled up onesDesperate but don't despair - make the call and Merv is thereBloody Mary's on the phone - she never wants to be alongWe're gonna bring you back to life againOne by one they always callHigh they stand and down the fallYou don't look so bad to me tonightWe will save the night againPlastic bags for plastic friendsI've got your medicine tonightWhy do your dreams come from that magazineAnd you're not to blame / the wasted manRipple in a water canNight birds scatter, last call pleadingCan we make a late night house call?We don't look so good tonight
