David Keenan - Back to the Pavement lyrics
[David Keenan - Back to the Pavement lyrics]
I'm going back to the pavement back to
The pavement back to the pavement where
I belong back to the pavement back to
Pavement a paradox in which a
Right equals wrong back to the pavement where
Bloody fables are sucked like cough sweets
Listening to rave go back go back
Go back go back go back
I'm going back to the pavement back to the
Gutter trip on your laces you run as
You stutter back to the pavement back to the
Pavement where all the kids are made
To hate one another back
To the pavement where
From the gable you tripped and fell wrapping
Your head around the cables go back go
Back go back go back go back
Back to the pavement back to the alley back
To the scum and the slang speaking
Rally back to the buckets back to the
Cream back to the boy child
Inhaling his dreams back to the pavement a
Brief engagement thanks for
The memories still
I can taste them go back go back
Go back go back go back
There was a time all I wanted to be
Was an angry young man with an outlet
Looking back now it was necessary with the
Old spice and squidgy brown hash
On further reflection there was
Freedom for me in
The old spice and squidgy brown hash
Looking back now it was necessary all the
Old spice and squidgy brown hash
Golden youth is upon me though I
Know it merely a loan
I drink coffee and write like a bastard
To discover how much I do own
I have known what it is to be fluid
I've been teacher then student then dunce
I have lived like a sage then a joker
I have pissed in life's glass bowl of punch
I am the fool who has been granted fortune
I'll stagnate then I'll thrive it goes on
I drink coffee and write like a bastard
In search of courage in search of meaning
In search of song
The pavement back to the pavement where
I belong back to the pavement back to
Pavement a paradox in which a
Right equals wrong back to the pavement where
Bloody fables are sucked like cough sweets
Listening to rave go back go back
Go back go back go back
I'm going back to the pavement back to the
Gutter trip on your laces you run as
You stutter back to the pavement back to the
Pavement where all the kids are made
To hate one another back
To the pavement where
From the gable you tripped and fell wrapping
Your head around the cables go back go
Back go back go back go back
Back to the pavement back to the alley back
To the scum and the slang speaking
Rally back to the buckets back to the
Cream back to the boy child
Inhaling his dreams back to the pavement a
Brief engagement thanks for
The memories still
I can taste them go back go back
Go back go back go back
There was a time all I wanted to be
Was an angry young man with an outlet
Looking back now it was necessary with the
Old spice and squidgy brown hash
On further reflection there was
Freedom for me in
The old spice and squidgy brown hash
Looking back now it was necessary all the
Old spice and squidgy brown hash
Golden youth is upon me though I
Know it merely a loan
I drink coffee and write like a bastard
To discover how much I do own
I have known what it is to be fluid
I've been teacher then student then dunce
I have lived like a sage then a joker
I have pissed in life's glass bowl of punch
I am the fool who has been granted fortune
I'll stagnate then I'll thrive it goes on
I drink coffee and write like a bastard
In search of courage in search of meaning
In search of song
