Broken Vacuum - Restorations

«You take too much» he says

«…from those big ideas.»

he says

«Those men are all dead» he says

«And soon we will be too»

Then he says something like how he only smokes outside

«It blocks out the sun» he says

And disappears in a cloud

Nails to the bone

Piles of plans that never panned out

Nails to the bone

Wrote all these songs about a place I’ve never been

«Is it worth it?»

she says

From across the water she says

«Is it worth it?»

she says from a long way home

As I’m stuck inside watching her pack the car

«It blocks out the sound» she says

And disappears in a cloud

Nails to the bone

Piles of plans that never panned out

Nails to the bone

Wrote all these songs for a girl I didn’t know

In a low voice I mumble

«Hey man, I should go»

With a slow step I stumble out into the dark city streets

Nails to the bone
