Midlake - Children of the Grounds lyrics
[Midlake - Children of the Grounds lyrics]
As the fortune appears, it begins to die
So I've come here to wait for
The end of it all till I'm gone from here
I'm gone from here
Children of the grounds are
Making warring sounds
For those outside with no care for time
They're full of love for life
Mother calling out to bring the end around
We weren't quite done
She blames it on the sun
We're raised in a town where they
Jump on your back and sing
Leave an imprint on your shoulder blades
Wanna walk away
We're not all the same in this town
We're raised in a town where they
Jump on your back like children
And they need you now and
They will leave you now
And we're all undone in this town
And we're all undone in this town
There were too many years under spells awry
As the fortune appears, it begins to die
So I've come here to wait for
The end of it all till I'm gone from here
I'm gone from here
I'm gone i'm gone
