You Am I - The Lives of Others lyrics
[You Am I - The Lives of Others lyrics]
The roads are paved with gold
They're paved with tin
The sky is splashed with worry, oh
But comfort lies within
I walk on through when the
Sky is bruised and stall
But herein lies the hiss of reality’s fission
I watch the lives of others
From the comfort of bitumen
Oh, I watch your nervous steps
I note your griefs
I watch your joys, your tensions
Your reliefs i walk on through when the sky
It scrubs the sleep from it's ducts
But herein lies the indignities
Of this sinning i watch the lives of others
From the safety of bitumen
Amanuensis uninvited
Scribbles down all your detritus
We ain't all in this here together
There's the haves, the have nots
The bleeding and the bruised
Oh, I’m bleeding now
It's not your entertainment I really crave
But, I feed upon all your
Movements just the same
I walk on through if your desperation's quiet
And herein lies the depravity of this vision
Oh, it's the lives of others, yeah
The lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others, the lives of others
The lives of others, the lives of others
The lives of others, the lives of others
They're paved with tin
The sky is splashed with worry, oh
But comfort lies within
I walk on through when the
Sky is bruised and stall
But herein lies the hiss of reality’s fission
I watch the lives of others
From the comfort of bitumen
Oh, I watch your nervous steps
I note your griefs
I watch your joys, your tensions
Your reliefs i walk on through when the sky
It scrubs the sleep from it's ducts
But herein lies the indignities
Of this sinning i watch the lives of others
From the safety of bitumen
Amanuensis uninvited
Scribbles down all your detritus
We ain't all in this here together
There's the haves, the have nots
The bleeding and the bruised
Oh, I’m bleeding now
It's not your entertainment I really crave
But, I feed upon all your
Movements just the same
I walk on through if your desperation's quiet
And herein lies the depravity of this vision
Oh, it's the lives of others, yeah
The lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I'm living in
The lives of others are the
Lives I’m living in
The lives of others, the lives of others
The lives of others, the lives of others
The lives of others, the lives of others
