I was born with a trust That didn't survive the white noise of the lies The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes I just wanna get high
I am the great collector I tally catalogue and hold to the light Forgotten scenes of love Some of them were mine All mine
I pick the broken dreams That hang in city centre trees All the love made urgently That gathers in the gutters of your mind Some of it was mine All mine
I was born with a trust That didn't survive the white noise of the lies The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes I just wanna get high
I was born with a trust That didn't survive the white noise of the lies The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes I just wanna get high
I tried to save the world silly boy By sullen girl with love as a given Driven by my certainty That they'd never beat it out of me
But who am I some Blarney Mantovani With a lullaby when the sky is falling in? I believe I'm giving in Oh, the coldness of space With a suit that could do it
I was born with a trust That didn't survive the white noise of the lies The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes I just wanna get high
I was born with a trust That didn't survive the white noise of the lies The white heat of injustice has taken my eyes I just wanna get high
