Wire - A Public Place lyrics

rate me

In this public place<br />

Pigeons move busily<br />

Through the contents<br />

Of a man's life<br />

In this public place<br />

His last mortal remains<br />

Reflect a private lake<br />

In this public place<br />

Lies fly in formation<br />

Candid fiction spreads it's wings<br />

It's deceptive at this angle<br />

Does truth dance?<br />

Does truth sing?<br />

The private hedge pissers<br />

In anxious alleys<br />

The village boy-wide-men<br />

With a game on their hands<br />

Wait for the sign<br />

That will take them to Heaven<br />

Wait for the sign<br />

Only they understand<br />

In this public place<br />

A carved tree<br />

Burst through an atheist's heart<br />

And broken promises<br />

Drifted into the shape of footprints<br />

In this public place<br />

Lies fly in-formation<br />

Candid fiction spreads it's wings
