lyrics

throw the windows open,
let the dead air out.
dance relieved, the curtains
it's hard to live an ordinary life.
breeze unwraps your dark gift
a barrel between your eyelids
a shot is fired but the birds are still alive
throw the windows open.
bright future havers, drunk feckless bastards
this life you have lived is lost in the fire
to nowhere goers, zealous pursuers
get your things, all aboard the burning train
daydrinkers, nailbiters
worry all over again
cave dwellers, rent payers
no use for lies, just kill the damn houselights.
open the dark gift.
break your back for beauty.
throw the windows open,
let the dead air out.
bright future havers, drunk feckless bastards
this life you have is lost in the fire
to nowhere goers, zealous pursuers
get your things, all aboard the burning train
marching band of idiots
worry all over again
daydreamers, the curious
tell your lies, don't kill the houselights.
