Boy leaves town, all gone in a whimper In the herd, on an island in the sun Not a single word to say Back away, birds of prey, you can hide or you can
Live your life and show us how desperate you are Let the sunshine give it away What's the use now? Show us how desperate you are Ask the sunshine, radiate or move out of the way
A punch in the face, tearing away some heat on a cold day All highways look the same when you're heading nowhere Fair enough, you'd say, you can't hide anywhere
Live your life and show us how desperate you are Let the sunshine give it away What's the use now? Show us how desperate you are Ask the sunshine, radiate or move out of the way
And it's fair enough, you'd say
Will anybody ever miss you? If you could change anything, would you? Will anybody ever miss you? If you could change anything, would you?
Live your life and show us how desperate you are Let the sunshine give it away What's the use now? Show us how desperate you are Ask the sunshine, radiate or move out of the way
Live your life and show us how desperate you are Let the sunshine give it away What's the use now? Show us how desperate you are Ask the sunshine, radiate or move out of the way
I'm the shiv in the cuts The gun to your guts I'm the wound between us And the rope tying us I'm the salt in the scars The vulture on the wire I'm your city on City on fire
