lyrics

Wuthering

A street light through the front door screen
Paints a blue on everything
Another day is coming to an end.
You said you'd never dreamt on sleeping pills
But it's faster if you run downhill
And either way we'll both crash in the bend

Close the door again,
Cause the outside's coming in...

I'll see you out on the other side
After the river has washed the stones;
A broken sky wuthering above it all
Just like the wind that you came in on.

With bottles stacked like dominos
And blood stains on your birthday clothes,
Last New Years Eve you swore you were getting clean.
So we rode down to the beach that night
Counting all the satellites
And soaking all your smokes in kerosene.

Close the door again,
Cause the outside's coming in...

I'll see you out on the other side
After the river has marked the stones;
A broken sky wuthering above it all
Just like the wind that you came in on.

When we were young you said you'd lived
Every day as a punishment
And carved your shame across the things you loved.
Tomorrow brings another light
All born to grow but grown to die
So let's not think too much about the end.
