Aking - Safe As Houses lyrics

rate me

I like looking at the sky<br />

As the wind the plays through<br />

The skirts of the trees<br />

The silence knows<br />

How afraid we are of it<br />

<br />

Cherished memories<br />

Bleed and bloom<br />

Our secrets like seeds<br />

Get swept up and carried through<br />

Our neighbourhood<br />

<br />

Safe as houses<br />

Tuck me in<br />

Daylight waits for no man<br />

Your're still young and breathing's easy<br />

Suck it in<br />

What a wasteless façade<br />

What a pity we've come this far<br />

<br />

The rain will fall and baptise<br />

Our strongholds, our sheltered lives<br />

Closed blinds, drawn curtains<br />

And vinyl floors can't hide<br />

<br />

Sane memories<br />

Bleed and bloom<br />

Our secrets like weeds<br />

Creep up to the roof<br />

Our neighbourhood<br />

<br />

Safe as houses<br />

Tuck me in<br />

Daylight waits for no man<br />

Your're still young and breathing's easy<br />

Suck it in<br />

What a wasteless façade<br />

What a pity we've come this far<br />

<br />

Our lucious denial<br />

Our devoured minds<br />

Our thoughts remain impotent<br />

Our pillows stay fertile<br />

<br />

Safe as houses<br />

Tuck me in<br />

Daylight waits for no man<br />

Your're still young and breathing's easy<br />

Suck it in<br />

What a wasteless façade<br />

What a pity we've come this far<br />

<br />

What a pity we've come this far
